Book of Enoch 14:13
And I went into that house, and it was as hot as fire and as cold as snow, and there was neither pleasure nor life in it. Fear covered me and trembling took hold of me.

Book of Enoch 14:14
And as I was shaking and trembling, I fell on my face.

Book of Enoch 14:15

Book of Enoch 14:18
And I looked, and I saw in it, a high Throne, and its appearance was like ice, and its surroundings like the shining sun and the sound of cherubim.

Book of Enoch 14:19

Book of Enoch 14:25
And He lifted me up and brought me near to the door. And I looked, with my face down.

Book of Enoch 15:1

Book of Enoch 15:2

Book of Enoch 15:3
Why have you left the high, holy and eternal heaven, and lain with women, and become unclean with the daughters of men, and taken wives for yourselves, and done as the sons of the earth, and begotten giant sons?

Book of Enoch 15:4
And you were spiritual, holy, living an eternal life, but you became unclean upon the women, and begot children through the blood of flesh, and lusted after the blood of men, and produced flesh and blood, as they do, who die and are destroyed.

Book of Enoch 15:5
And for this reason I give men wives; so that they might sow seed in them, and so that children might be born by them, so that deeds might be done on the earth.

Book of Enoch 15:6
But you, formerly, were spiritual, living an eternal, immortal life, for all the generations of the world.

Book of Enoch 15:7
For this reason I did not arrange wives for you; because the dwelling of the spiritual ones is in heaven.' *Matthew 22:30

Book of Enoch 15:8
And now, the giants who were born from body and flesh will be called evil spirits on the earth, and on the earth will be their dwelling.

Book of Enoch 15:9
And evil spirits came out from their flesh, because from above they were created, from the holy Watchers was their origin and first foundation. Evil spirits they will be on earth and 'Spirits of the Evil Ones' will they be called.

Book of Enoch 15:10
And the dwelling of the spirits of heaven is heaven, but the dwelling of the spirits of the earth, who were born on the earth, is earth.

Book of Enoch 15:11
And the spirits of the giants do wrong, are corrupt, attack, fight, break on the earth, and cause sorrow. And they eat no food, do not thirst, and are not observed.

Book of Enoch 15:12
And these spirits will rise against the sons of men, and against the women, because they came out of them during the days of slaughter and destruction.

Book of Enoch 16:1
And the death of the giants, wherever the spirits have gone out from their bodies, their flesh will be destroyed, before the Judgement. Thus they will be destroyed until the Day of the Great Consummation is accomplished, upon the Great Age, upon the Watchers and the impious ones."

Book of Enoch 16:2
And now to the Watchers, who sent you to petition on their behalf, who were formerly in heaven,

Book of Enoch 16:3
"You were in heaven but its secrets had not yet been revealed to you; and a worthless mystery you knew. This you made known to women, in the hardness of your hearts. And through this mystery the women and the men cause evil to increase on the earth."

Book of Enoch 16:4
Say to them therefore, "You will not have peace."

Book of Enoch 17:1
And they took me to a place where they were like burning fire, and, when they wished, they made themselves look like men.

Book of Enoch 17:2
And they led me to a place of storm, and to a mountain, the tip of whose summit reached to heaven.

Book of Enoch 17:3

Book of Enoch 17:4
And they took me to the Water of Life, as it is called, and to the Fire of the West, which receives every setting of the sun.

Book of Enoch 17:5
And I came to a river of fire, whose fire flows like water, and pours out into the Great Sea, which is towards the west.

Book of Enoch 18:2
And I saw the cornerstone of the earth. And I saw the four winds which support the earth and the heaven.

Book of Enoch 18:3
And I saw how the winds stretch out the height of heaven, and how they position themselves between heaven and earth; they are the pillars of heaven. *13:2

Book of Enoch 18:4
And I saw the winds which turn the heaven and cause the disc of the sun and all the stars to set.

Book of Enoch 18:5
And I saw the winds on the earth which support the clouds and I saw the paths of the angels. I saw at the end of the earth; the firmament of heaven above.

Book of Enoch 18:6
And I went towards the south, and it was burning day and night, where there were seven mountains of precious stones, three towards the east and three towards the south.

Book of Enoch 18:7
And those towards the east were of coloured stone, and one was of pearl, and one of healing stone; and those towards the south, of red stone.

Book of Enoch 18:8
And the middle one reached to heaven, like the Throne of the Lord, of stibium, and the top of the Throne was of sapphire.

Book of Enoch 18:9
And I saw a burning fire, and what was in all the mountains.

Book of Enoch 18:10
And I saw a place there, beyond the great earth; there the waters gathered together.

Book of Enoch 18:11
And I saw a deep chasm of the earth, with pillars of heavenly fire, and I saw among them fiery pillars of heaven, which were falling, and as regards both height and depth, they were immeasurable.

Book of Enoch 18:12
And beyond this chasm, I saw a place, and it had neither the heaven above it, nor the foundation of earth below it; there was no water on it, and no birds, but it was a desert place.

Book of Enoch 18:13
And a terrible thing I saw there, seven stars, like great burning mountains.

Book of Enoch 18:14
And like a spirit questioning me, the angel said, "This is the place of the end of heaven and earth; this is the prison for the stars of heaven and the host of heaven.

Book of Enoch 18:15
And the stars which roll over the fire, these are the ones which transgressed the command of the Lord, from the beginning of their rising, because they did not come out at their proper times.

Book of Enoch 18:16
And He was angry with them, and bound them until the time of the consummation of their sin, in the Year of Mystery."

Book of Enoch 19:1
And Uriel said to me, "The spirits of the angels who were promiscuous with women will stand here; and they, assuming many forms, made men unclean and will lead men astray so that they sacrifice to demons as gods. And they will stand there until the Great Judgement Day, on which they will be judged, so that an end will be made of them.

Book of Enoch 19:2
And their wives, having led astray the angels of heaven, will become peaceful."

Book of Enoch 19:3

Book of Enoch 21:1

Book of Enoch 21:2
And I saw a terrible thing, neither the high heaven nor the firm ground, but a desert place, prepared and terrible.

Book of Enoch 21:3
And there, I saw seven stars of heaven, bound on it together, like great mountains, and burning like fire.

Book of Enoch 21:4
Then I said, "For what sin have they been bound, and why have they been thrown here?"

Book of Enoch 21:5
And Uriel, one of the holy angels, who was with me and led me, spoke to me and said, "Enoch, about whom do you ask? About whom do you inquire, ask, and care?

Book of Enoch 21:6
These are some of the stars which transgressed the command of the Lord Most High, and they have been bound here until ten thousand ages are completed; the number of days of their sin."

Book of Enoch 21:7
And from there I went to another place, more terrible than this. And I saw a terrible thing, there was a Great Fire there, which burnt and blazed. And the place had a cleft reaching into the abyss, *101:8 - 11 full of great pillars of fire, *104:8 - 9 which were made to fall; neither its extent nor its size could I see, nor could I see its source.

Book of Enoch 21:8
Then I said, "How terrible this place is, and how painful to look at!"

Book of Enoch 21:9
Then Uriel, one of the holy angels, who was with me, answered me. He answered me and said to me, "Enoch, why do you have such fear and terror because of this terrible place, and before this pain?"

Book of Enoch 21:10
And he said to me, "This place is the prison of the angels, and there they will be held forever."

Book of Enoch 22:1
And from there, I went to another place, and he showed me in the west a large and high mountain, and a hard rock, and four beautiful places.

Book of Enoch 22:2
And inside, it was deep, wide, and very smooth. How smooth is that which rolls, and deep and dark to look at!

Book of Enoch 22:3
Then Raphael, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered me, and said to me, "These beautiful places are there so that the spirits, the souls of the dead, might be gathered into them. For them they were created; so that here they might gather the souls of the sons of men.

Book of Enoch 22:4
And these places they made, where they will keep them until the Day of Judgement, and until their appointed time, and that appointed time will be long, until the Great Judgement comes upon them.

Book of Enoch 22:5
And I saw the spirits of the sons of men who were dead and their voices reached heaven and complained.

Book of Enoch 22:6
Then I asked Raphael, the angel who was with me, and said to him, "Whose is this spirit, whose voice thus reaches heaven and complains?"

Book of Enoch 22:7
And he answered me, and said to me, saying, "This spirit is the one that came out of Abel, whom Cain, his brother, killed. And he will complain about him until his offspring are destroyed from the face of the earth, and from among the offspring of men, his offspring perish."

Book of Enoch 22:8
Then I asked about him, and about Judgement on all, and I said, "Why is one separated from another?"

Book of Enoch 22:9
And he answered me, and said to me, "These three places were made in order that they might separate the spirits of the dead. And thus the souls of the righteous have been separated; this is the spring of water, and on it the light.

Book of Enoch 22:10
Likewise, a place has been created for sinners, when they die, and are buried in the earth, and Judgement has not come upon them during their life.

Book of Enoch 22:11
And here their souls will be separated for this great torment, until the Great Day of Judgement and punishment and torment for those who curse, forever, and of vengeance on their souls. And there He will bind them forever. Verily, He is, from the beginning of the world.

Book of Enoch 22:12
And thus a place has been separated for the souls of those who complain, and give information about their destruction, about when they were killed, in the days of the sinners.

Book of Enoch 22:13
Thus a place has been created, for the souls of men who are not righteous, but sinners, accomplished in wrongdoing, and with the wrongdoers will be their lot. But their souls will not be killed on the Day of Judgement, nor will they rise from here."

Book of Enoch 22:14
Then I blessed the Lord of glory, and said, "Blessed is my Lord, the Lord of glory and righteousness, who rules everything forever."

Book of Enoch 23:1
And from there I went to another place, towards the west, to the ends of the earth.

Book of Enoch 23:2
And I saw a fire that burnt and ran, without resting or ceasing from running, by day or by night, but continued in exactly the same way.

Book of Enoch 23:3
And I asked saying, "What is this which has no rest?"

Book of Enoch 23:4
Then Raguel, one of the holy angels, who was with me, answered me, and said to me, "This burning fire, whose course you saw towards the west, is the fire of all the lights of heaven."

Book of Enoch 24:1
And from there I went to another place of the earth and he showed me a mountain of fire that blazed day and night.

Book of Enoch 24:2
And I went towards it and saw seven magnificent mountains. And all were different from one another, and precious and beautiful stones, and all were precious, and their appearance glorious, and their form was beautiful. Three towards the east one fixed firmly on another and three towards the south one on another, and deep and rugged valleys, not one of which was near another.

Book of Enoch 24:3
And there was a seventh mountain, in the middle of these, and in their height they were all like the seat of a throne and fragrant trees surrounded it.

Book of Enoch 24:4
And there was among them a tree such as which I have never smelled, and none of them, or any others, were like it. It smells more fragrant than any fragrance, and its leaves, and its flowers, and its wood never wither. Its fruit is good, and its fruit is like bunches of dates on a palm.

Book of Enoch 24:5
And then I said, "Behold, this beautiful tree! Beautiful to look at, and pleasant are its leaves, and its fruit very delightful in appearance."

Book of Enoch 24:6
And then Michael, one of the holy and honored angels, who was with me, and was in charge of them,

Book of Enoch 25:1
Answered me and said to me, "Enoch, why do you ask me about the fragrance of this tree, and why do you inquire to learn?"

Book of Enoch 25:2
Then I, Enoch, answered him saying, "I wish to learn about everything, but especially about this tree."

Book of Enoch 25:3
And he answered me, saying, "This high mountain, which you saw, whose summit is like the Throne of the Lord, is the Throne where the Holy and Great One, the Lord of glory, the Eternal King, will sit, when He comes down to visit the earth for good.

Book of Enoch 25:4
And this beautiful and fragrant tree, and no creature of flesh has authority to touch it until the Great Judgement, when He will take vengeance on all and bring everything to a consummation forever, this will be given to the righteous and the humble.

Book of Enoch 25:5
From its fruit, life will be given to the chosen; towards the north it will be planted, in a holy place, by the House of the Lord, the Eternal King.

Book of Enoch 25:6
Then they will rejoice with joy and be glad in the holy place. They will each draw the fragrance of it into their bones, and they will live a long life on earth, as your fathers lived. And in their days sorrow and pain, and toil and punishment, will not touch them."

Book of Enoch 25:7
Then I blessed the Lord of glory, the Eternal King, because He has prepared such things for righteous men, and has created such things, and said that they are to be given to them.

Book of Enoch 26:1
And from there, I went to the middle of the earth, and saw a blessed, well watered place, which had branches which remained alive, and sprouted from a tree which had been cut down.

Book of Enoch 26:2
And there I saw a holy mountain, and under the mountain, to the east of it, there was water, and it flowed towards the south.

Book of Enoch 26:3
And I saw towards the east, another mountain, which was of the same height, and between them, there was a deep and narrow valley; and in it, a stream ran by the mountain.

Book of Enoch 26:4
And to the west of this one, was another mountain, which was lower than it was and not high; and under it, there was a valley between them. And there were other deep and dry valleys at the end of the three mountains.

Book of Enoch 26:5
And all the valleys were deep and narrow, of hard rock, and trees were planted on them.

Book of Enoch 26:6
And I was amazed at the rock, and I was amazed at the valley; I was very much amazed.

Book of Enoch 27:1
Then I said, "What is the purpose of this blessed land, which is completely full of trees, and of this accursed valley in the middle of them?"

Book of Enoch 27:2
Then Raphael, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered me, and said to me, "This accursed valley, is for those who are cursed forever. Here will be gathered together all who speak with their mouths against the Lord - words that are not fitting, and say hard things about His glory. Here they will gather them together, and here will be their place of Judgement.

Book of Enoch 27:3
And in the Last Days there will be the spectacle of the righteous Judgement upon them, in front of the righteous, forever. For here, the merciful will bless the Lord of glory, the Eternal King.

Book of Enoch 27:4
And in the days of the judgement on them they will bless Him, on account of His mercy, accordingly as He has assigned to them their lot."

Book of Enoch 27:5
Then I myself blessed the Lord of glory, I addressed Him, and I remembered His majesty, as was fitting.

Book of Enoch 28:1
And from there, I went towards the east, to the middle of the mountain of the wilderness, and I saw only desert.

Book of Enoch 28:2
But it was full of trees from this seed and water gushed out over it from above.

Book of Enoch 28:3
The torrent, which flowed towards the northwest, seemed copious, and from all sides, there went up spray and mist.

Book of Enoch 29:1
And I went to another place, away from the wilderness; I came near to the east of this mountain.

Book of Enoch 29:2
And there I saw Trees of Judgement, especially vessels of the fragrance of incense and myrrh, and the trees were not alike.

Book of Enoch 30:1
And above it, above these, above the mountains of the east, and not far away, I saw another place, valleys of water, like that which does not fail.

Book of Enoch 30:2
And I saw a beautiful tree, and its fragrance was like that of the mastic.

Book of Enoch 30:3
And by the banks of these valleys I saw fragrant cinnamon. And beyond those valleys I came towards the east.

Book of Enoch 31:1
And I saw another mountain on which there were trees, and there flowed out water, and there flowed out from it, as it were, a nectar whose name is styrax and galbanum.

Book of Enoch 31:2
And beyond this mountain I saw another mountain, and on it there were aloe trees, and those trees were full of a fruit, which is like an almond, and is hard.

Book of Enoch 31:3
And when they take this fruit it is better than any fragrance.

Book of Enoch 32:1
And after these fragrances, to the north, as I looked over the mountains, I saw seven mountains full of fine nard, and fragrant trees of cinnamon and pepper.

Book of Enoch 32:2
And from there, I went over the summits of those mountains, far away to the east, and I went over the Red Sea, and I was far from it, and I went over the angel Zotiel.

Book of Enoch 32:3
And I came to the Garden of Righteousness, and I saw beyond those trees many large trees growing there, sweet smelling, large, very beautiful and glorious, the Trees of Wisdom, from which they eat and know great wisdom.

Book of Enoch 32:4
And it is like the carob tree, and its fruit is like bunches of grapes on a vine, very beautiful, and the smell of this tree spreads and penetrates afar.

Book of Enoch 32:5
And I said, "This tree is beautiful! How beautiful and pleasing is its appearance!"

Book of Enoch 32:6
And the holy angel Raphael, who was with me, answered me and said to me, "This is the Tree of Wisdom, from which your ancient father and ancient mother, who were before you, ate and learned wisdom; and their eyes were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they were driven from the Garden."

Book of Enoch 33:1
And from there I went to the ends of the earth, and I saw there large animals, each different from the other, and also birds, which differed in form, beauty, and call - each different from the other.

Book of Enoch 33:2
And to the east of these animals, I saw the ends of the earth, on which heaven rests, and the open gates of heaven.

Book of Enoch 33:3
And I saw how the stars of heaven come out, and counted the gates out of which they come, and wrote down all their outlets, for each one, individually, according to their number. And their names, according to their constellations, their positions, their times, and their months, as the angel Uriel, who was with me, showed me.

Book of Enoch 33:4
And he showed me everything, and wrote it down, and also their names he wrote down for me, and their laws and their functions.

Book of Enoch 34:1
And from there I went towards the north, to the ends of the earth, and there I saw a great and glorious wonder at the ends of the whole earth.

Book of Enoch 34:2
And there I saw three gates of heaven; through each of them north winds go out; when they blow there is cold, hail, hoarfrost, snow, fog, and rain.

Book of Enoch 34:3
And from one gate, it blows for good; but when they blow through the other two gates, it is with force, and it brings torment over the earth, and they blow with force.

Book of Enoch 35:1
And from there I went towards the west, to the ends of the earth, and I saw there, as I saw in the east, three open gates - as many gates and as many outlets.

Book of Enoch 36:1
And from there I went towards the south, to the ends of the earth, and there I saw three gates of heaven open; and the south wind, the mist, and the rain, and wind, come out from there.

Book of Enoch 36:2
And from there I went towards the east of the ends of heaven, and there I saw the three eastern gates of heaven open, and above them, there were smaller gates.

Book of Enoch 36:3
Through each of these smaller gates, the stars of heaven pass, and go towards the west, on the path that has been shown to them.

Book of Enoch 36:4
And when I saw, I blessed, and I will always bless the Lord of glory, who has made great and glorious wonders so that He might show the greatness of His work, to His angels, and to the souls of men, so that they might praise His work. And so that all His creatures might see the work of His power, and praise the great work of His hands, and bless Him forever!

Book of Enoch 37:1
The second vision that he saw, the vision of wisdom, which Enoch, the son of Jared, the son of Malalel, the son of Cainan, the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, saw.

Book of Enoch 37:2
And this is the beginning of the words of wisdom, which I raised my voice to speak, and say. "To those who dwell on dry ground, - hear, you men of old, and see, those who come after; the words of the Holy One, which I will speak, in front of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 37:3
It would have been better to have said these things before, but from those who come after, we will not withhold the beginning of wisdom.

Book of Enoch 37:4
Until now, there has not been given, by the Lord of spirits, such wisdom as I have received. In accordance with my insight, in accordance with the wish of the Lord of spirits, by whom the lot of eternal life has been given to me.

Book of Enoch 37:5
And the three parables were imparted to me and I raised my voice, and said to those who dwell on the dry ground,

Book of Enoch 38:1
The first parable. When the community of the righteous appears and the sinners are judged for their sins and are driven from the face of the dry ground.

Book of Enoch 38:2
And when the Righteous One appears, in front of the chosen righteous, whose works are weighed by the Lord of spirits. And when light appears to the righteous and chosen who dwell on the dry ground. Where will be the dwelling of the sinners? And where will be the resting place of those who denied the Lord of spirits? It would have been better for them, if they had not been born.

Book of Enoch 38:3
And when the secrets of the righteous are revealed, the sinners will be judged, and the impious driven from the presence of the righteous and the chosen.

Book of Enoch 38:4
And from then on, those who possess the earth will not be mighty and exalted. Nor will they be able to look at the face of the holy ones, for the light of the Lord of the spirits will have appeared on the face of the holy, the righteous, and the chosen.

Book of Enoch 38:5
And the mighty kings will at that time be destroyed and given into the hand of the righteous and the holy.

Book of Enoch 38:6
And from then on no one will be able to seek the Lord of spirits for their life will be at an end.

Book of Enoch 39:1
And it will come to pass in these days that the chosen and holy children will come down from the high heavens and their offspring will become one with the sons of men.

Book of Enoch 39:2
In those days Enoch received books of indignation and anger and books of tumult and confusion. And there will be no mercy for them, says the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 39:3
And at that time clouds and a storm wind carried me off from the face of the earth and set me down at the end of heaven.

Book of Enoch 39:4
And there I saw another vision; the dwelling of the righteous and the resting places of the holy.

Book of Enoch 39:5
There my eyes saw their dwelling with the angels, and their resting places with the holy ones, and they were petitioning and supplicating and praying, on behalf of the sons of men; and righteousness, like water, flowed in front of them, and mercy like dew on the ground. Thus it is among them forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 39:6
And in those days my eyes saw the place of the chosen ones of righteousness and faith; and there will be righteousness in their days, and the righteous and chosen will be without number, in front of Him, forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 39:7
And I saw their dwelling, under the wings of the Lord of spirits, and all the righteous and chosen shone in front of Him, like the light of fire. And their mouths were full of blessing, and their lips praised the name of the Lord of spirits. And righteousness will not fail in front of Him, and truth will not fail in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 39:8
There I wished to dwell, and my soul longed for that dwelling; there had my lot been assigned before, for thus it was decided about me, in front of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 39:9
And in those days I praised and exalted the name of the Lord of spirits, with blessing and praise, for He has destined me for blessing and praise, in accordance with the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 39:10
And for a long time my eyes looked at that place, and I blessed Him and praised Him, saying, "Blessed is He, and may He be blessed from the beginning and forever!"

Book of Enoch 39:11
And in His presence there is no end. He knew before the world was created what the world would be, even for all the generations that are to come.

Book of Enoch 39:12
Those who do not sleep bless You, and they stand before Your glory, and bless and praise and exalt, saying, "Holy, holy, holy, Lord of spirits; He fills the earth with spirits."

Book of Enoch 39:13
And there, my eyes saw all those who do not sleep; standing in front of Him, and blessing, and saying, "Blessed are You, and blessed is the name of the Lord, forever and ever!"

Book of Enoch 39:14
And my face was transformed until I was unable to see.

Book of Enoch 40:1
And after this I saw a thousand thousands and ten thousand times ten thousand! A multitude beyond number, or reckoning, who stood in front of the glory of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 40:2
I looked, and on the four sides of the Lord of spirits, I saw four figures, different from those who were standing; and I learned their names, because the angel who went with me made known their names, and showed me all the secret things.

Book of Enoch 40:3
And I heard the voices of those four figures as they sang praises in front of the Lord of glory.

Book of Enoch 40:4
The first voice blesses the Lord of spirits forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 40:5
And the second voice I heard blessing the Chosen One and the chosen who depend on the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 40:6
And the third voice I heard, petitioned, and prayed, on behalf of those who dwell on dry ground and supplicate in the name of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 40:7
And the fourth voice I heard driving away the devils and not allowing them to come in front of the Lord of spirits to accuse those who dwell on the high ground.

Book of Enoch 40:8
And after this I asked the angel of peace, who went with me, and showed me everything which is secret, "Who are those four figures, whom I have seen, and whose words I have heard and written down?"

Book of Enoch 40:9
And he said to me, "This first one, is the holy Michael, the merciful and long-suffering. And the second, who is in charge of all the diseases, and in charge of all the wounds of the sons of men, is Raphael. And the third, who is in charge of all the powers, is the holy Gabriel. And the fourth, who is in charge of repentance and hope of those who will inherit eternal life, is Phanuel."

Book of Enoch 40:10
And these are the four angels of the Lord Most High; and the four voices that I heard in those days.

Book of Enoch 41:1
And after this, I saw all the secrets of heaven, and how the Kingdom is divided, and how the deeds of men are weighed in the balance.

Book of Enoch 41:2
There I saw the dwelling of the chosen, and the resting places of the holy; and my eyes saw there all the sinners who deny the name of the Lord of spirits being driven from there. And they dragged them off, and they were not able to remain, because of the punishment that went out from the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 41:3
And there my eyes saw the secrets of the flashes of lightning and of the thunder. And the secrets of the winds, how they are distributed in order to blow over the earth, and the secrets of the clouds, and of the dew; and there I saw from where they go out, in that place. And how, from there, the dust of the earth is saturated.

Book of Enoch 41:4
And there I saw closed storehouses from which the winds are distributed, and the storehouse of the hail, and the storehouse of the mist, and the storehouse of the clouds; and its cloud remained over the earth, from the beginning of the world.

Book of Enoch 41:5
And I saw the chambers of the sun and the moon, where they go out, and where they return. And their glorious return; and how one is more honored than the other is. And their magnificent course, and how they do not leave their course, neither adding nor subtracting from their course. And how they keep faith in one another, observing their oath.

Book of Enoch 41:6
And the sun goes out first, and completes its journey at the command of the Lord of spirits - and His name endures forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 41:7
And after this is the hidden, and visible, path of the moon, and it travels the course of its journey, in that place, by day and by night. One stands opposite the other, in front of the Lord of spirits, and they give thanks, and sing praise, and do not rest, because their thanksgiving is like rest to them.

Book of Enoch 41:8
For the shining sun makes many revolutions; for a blessing and for a curse. And the path of the journey of the moon is for the righteous light but for the sinners; darkness. In the name of the Lord, who has created a division between light and darkness, and has divided the spirits of men, and has established the spirits of the righteous, in the name of His righteousness.

Book of Enoch 41:9
For no angel hinders, and no power is able to hinder, because the Judge sees them all, and judges them all Himself.

Book of Enoch 42:1
Wisdom found no place where she could dwell, and her dwelling was in heaven.

Book of Enoch 42:2
Wisdom went out, in order to dwell among the sons of men, but did not find a dwelling; wisdom returned to her place, and took her seat in the midst of the angels.

Book of Enoch 42:3
And iniquity came out from her chambers; those whom she did not seek she found, and dwelt among them, like rain in the desert, and like dew on the parched ground.

Book of Enoch 43:1
And again I saw flashes of lightning and the stars of heaven, and I saw how He called them all by their names, and they obeyed Him.

Book of Enoch 43:2
And I saw the Balance of Righteousness, how they are weighed according to their light, according to the width of their areas, and the day of their appearing. And how their revolutions produce lightning, and I saw their revolutions, according to the number of the angels, and how they keep faith with one another.

Book of Enoch 43:3
And I asked the angel, who went with me and showed me what is secret, "What are these?"

Book of Enoch 43:4
And he said to me, "Their likeness, the Lord of spirits has shown to you; these are the names of the righteous who dwell on the dry ground and believe in the name of the Lord of spirits forever and ever."

Book of Enoch 44:1
And other things I saw concerning lightning, how some of the stars rise and become lightning but cannot lose their form.

Book of Enoch 45:1
And this is the second parable. About those who deny the name of the dwelling of the holy ones and of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 45:2
They will not ascend into heaven nor will they come upon the earth; such will be the lot of the sinners who deny the name of the Lord of spirits who will thus be kept for the Day of Affliction and Distress.

Book of Enoch 45:3
"On that Day the Chosen One will sit on the throne of glory and will choose their works. And their resting places will be without number and their spirits within them will grow strong when they see My Chosen One and those who appeal to My holy and glorious name.

Book of Enoch 45:4
And on that Day I will cause My Chosen One to dwell among them and I will transform heaven and make it an eternal blessing and light.

Book of Enoch 45:5
And I will transform the dry ground and make it a blessing, and I will cause My chosen ones to dwell upon it; but those who commit sin and evil will not tread upon it.

Book of Enoch 45:6
For I have seen, and have satisfied with peace, My righteous ones, and have placed them in front of Me; but for the sinners My judgement draws near so that I may destroy them from the face of the earth."

Book of Enoch 46:1
And there I saw one who had a 'Head of Days' and his head was white like wool. And with him there was another whose face had the appearance of a man and his face was full of grace like one of the holy angels.

Book of Enoch 46:2
And I asked one of the holy angels, who went with me and showed me all the secrets, about that Son of man, who he was, and from where he was, and why he went with the Head of Days.

Book of Enoch 46:3
And he answered me, and said to me, "This is the Son of man who has righteousness and with whom righteousness dwells. He will reveal all the treasures of that which is secret, for the Lord of spirits has chosen him, and through uprightness his lot has surpassed all others, in front of the Lord of spirits, forever.

Book of Enoch 46:4
And this Son of man, whom you have seen, will rouse the kings and the powerful from their resting places, and the strong from their thrones, and will loose the reins of the strong, and will break the teeth of the sinners.

Book of Enoch 46:5
And he will cast down the kings from their thrones, and from their kingdoms, for they do not exalt Him, and do not praise Him, and do not humbly acknowledge from where their kingdom was given to them.

Book of Enoch 46:6
And he will cast down the faces of the strong and shame will fill them, and darkness will be their dwelling, and worms will be their resting place. And they will have no hope of rising from their resting-places, for they do not exalt the name of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 46:7
And these are those who judge the stars of heaven, and raise their hands against the Most High, and trample upon the dry ground, and dwell upon it. And all their deeds show iniquity, and their power rests on their riches, and their faith is in their gods that they have made with their hands, and they deny the name of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 46:8
And they will be driven from the houses of His congregation, and of the faithful, who depend on the name of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 47:1
And in those days, the prayer of the righteous, and the blood of the righteous will have ascended from the earth in front of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 47:2
In these days the holy ones who live in heaven above will unite with one voice, and supplicate, and pray, and praise, and give thanks, and bless, in the name of the Lord of spirits. Because of the blood of the righteous that has been poured out. And because of the prayer of the righteous, so that it may not cease in front of the Lord of spirits, so that justice might be done to them, and that their patience may not have to last forever."

Book of Enoch 47:3
And in those days, I saw the Head of Days sit down on the Throne of His glory and the Books of the Living were opened in front of Him and all His host, which dwell in the heavens above, and His council were standing in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 47:4
And the hearts of the holy ones were full of joy that the number of righteousness had been reached, and the prayer of the righteous had been heard, and the blood of the righteous had not been required in front of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 48:1
And in that place I saw an inexhaustible spring of righteousness and many springs of wisdom surrounded it, and all the thirsty drank from them and were filled with wisdom, and their dwelling was with the righteous and the holy and the chosen.

Book of Enoch 48:2
And at that hour that Son of man was named, in the presence of the Lord of spirits, and his name brought to the Head of Days.

Book of Enoch 48:3
Even before the sun and the constellations were created, before the stars of heaven were made, his name was named in front of the Lord of spirits. *John 8:58

Book of Enoch 48:4
He will be a staff to the righteous and the holy, so that they may lean on him and not fall, and he will be the light of the nations, and he will be the hope of those who grieve in their hearts.

Book of Enoch 48:5
All those who dwell upon the dry ground will fall down and worship in front of Him, and they will bless, and praise, and celebrate with psalms, the name of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 48:6
And because of this he was chosen, and hidden in front of Him, before the world was created, and forever.

Book of Enoch 48:7
But the wisdom of the Lord of spirits has revealed him to the holy and the righteous, for he has kept safe the lot of the righteous, for they have hated and rejected this world of iniquity. And all its works and its ways they have hated in the name of the Lord of spirits. For in His name they are saved and He is the one who will require their lives.

Book of Enoch 48:8
And in those days the kings of the earth, and the strong who possess the dry ground, will have downcast faces because of the works of their hands, for on the Day of their distress and trouble they will not save themselves.

Book of Enoch 48:9
And I will give them into the hands of My chosen ones; like straw in the fire, and like lead in water, so they will burn in front of the righteous, and sink in front of the holy, and no trace will be found of them.

Book of Enoch 48:10
And on the Day of their trouble there will be rest on the earth and they will fall down in front of him and will not rise. And there will be no one who will take them with his hands and raise them for they denied the Lord of spirits and His Messiah. May the name of the Lord of spirits be blessed!

Book of Enoch 49:1
For wisdom has been poured out like water and glory will not fail in front of Him forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 49:2
For He is powerful in all the secrets of righteousness and iniquity will pass away like a shadow, and will have no existence; for the Chosen One stands in front of the Lord of spirits, and His glory is forever and ever, and His power for all generations.

Book of Enoch 49:3
And in Him dwell the spirit of wisdom, and the spirit that gives understanding, and the spirit of knowledge and of power, and the spirit of those who sleep in righteousness.

Book of Enoch 49:4
And He will judge the things that are secret, and no one will be able to say an idle word in front of him, for he has been chosen in front of the Lord of spirits, in accordance with His wish.

Book of Enoch 50:1
And in those days a change will occur for the holy and the chosen; the Light of Days will rest upon them, and glory and honor will return to the holy.

Book of Enoch 50:2
And on the Day of Trouble, calamity will be heaped up over the sinners, but the righteous will conquer in the name of the Lord of spirits and He will show this to others so that they might repent and abandon the works of their hands.

Book of Enoch 50:3
And they will have no honor in front of the Lord of spirits, but in His name they will be saved and the Lord of spirits will have mercy on them, for His mercy is great.

Book of Enoch 50:4
And He is righteous in His judgement, and in front of His glory iniquity will not be able to stand against His judgement; he who does not repent will be destroyed.

Book of Enoch 50:5
"And from then on I will not have mercy on them," says the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 51:1
And in those days the earth will return that which has been entrusted to it, and Sheol will return that which has been entrusted to it and that which it has received. And destruction will return what it owes.

Book of Enoch 51:2
And He will choose the righteous and the holy from among them; for the Day has come near when they must be saved.

Book of Enoch 51:3
And in those days, the Chosen One will sit on his throne, and all the secrets of wisdom will flow out from the council of his mouth, for the Lord of spirits has appointed him and glorified him.

Book of Enoch 51:4
And in those days the mountains will leap like rams, and the hills will skip like lambs satisfied with milk, and all will become angels in heaven.

Book of Enoch 51:5
Their faces will shine with joy, for in those days the Chosen One will have risen and the earth will rejoice. And the righteous will dwell upon it and the chosen will walk upon it.

Book of Enoch 52:1
And after those days, in that place where I had seen all the visions of that which is secret, for I had been carried off by a whirlwind, and they had brought me to the west.

Book of Enoch 52:2
There my eyes saw the secrets of heaven; everything that will occur on earth, a mountain of iron, and a mountain of copper, and a mountain of silver, and a mountain of gold, and a mountain of soft metal, and a mountain of lead.

Book of Enoch 52:3
And I asked the angel who went with me, saying, "What are these things which I have seen in secret?"

Book of Enoch 52:4
And he said to me, "All these things which you have seen serve the authority of His Messiah, so that he may be strong and powerful on the earth."

Book of Enoch 52:5
And that angel of peace answered me, saying, "Wait a little and you will see, and everything which is secret, which the Lord of spirits has established, will be revealed to you.

Book of Enoch 52:6
And these mountains, that you have seen; the mountain of iron, and the mountain of copper, and the mountain of silver, and the mountain of gold, and the mountain of soft metal, and the mountain of lead. All these in front of the Chosen One will be like wax before fire, and like the water that comes down from above onto these mountains they will be weak under his feet.

Book of Enoch 52:8
And there will be neither iron for war nor material for a breastplate; bronze will be no use, and tin will be of no use and will count for nothing, and lead will not be wanted.

Book of Enoch 52:9
All these will be wiped out and destroyed from the face of the earth when the Chosen One appears in front of the Lord of spirits."

Book of Enoch 53:1
And there my eyes saw a deep valley, and its mouth was open; and all those who dwell upon dry ground and the sea and the islands will bring gifts and presents and offerings to him, but that deep valley will not become full.

Book of Enoch 53:2
And their hands commit evil, and everything at which the righteous toil the sinners evilly devour; and so the sinners will be destroyed from in front of the Lord of spirits, and will be banished from the face of His earth, unceasingly forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 53:3
For I saw the angels of punishment going and preparing all the instruments of Satan.

Book of Enoch 53:4
And I asked the angel of peace, who went with me, and I said to him, "These instruments - for whom are they preparing them?"

Book of Enoch 53:5
And he said to me, "They are preparing these for the kings and the powerful of this earth, so that by means of them they may be destroyed.

Book of Enoch 53:6
And after this the righteous and Chosen One will cause the house of his congregation to appear; from then on, in the name of the Lord of spirits, they will not be hindered.

Book of Enoch 53:7
And in front of him these mountains will not be firm like the earth, and the hills will be like a spring of water; and the righteous will have rest from the ill-treatment of the sinners."

Book of Enoch 54:1
And I looked, and turned to another part of the earth, and I saw there a deep valley with burning fire.

Book of Enoch 54:2
And they brought the kings and powerful and threw them into that valley.

Book of Enoch 54:3
And there my eyes saw how they made instruments for them - iron chains of immeasurable weight.

Book of Enoch 54:4
And I asked the angel of peace, who went with me, saying, "These chain instruments - for whom are they being prepared?"

Book of Enoch 54:5
And he said to me, "These are being prepared for the hosts of Azazel, so that they may take them, and throw them into the lowest part of Hell; and they will cover their jaws with rough stones, as the Lord of spirits commanded.

Book of Enoch 54:6
And Michael and Gabriel, Raphael and Phanuel - these will take hold of them on that Great Day. And throw them, on that Day, into the furnace of burning Fire, *Matthew 13:49 - 50, *37:21 - 23, *66:6, *74:30 - 31, *96:18 so that the Lord of spirits may take vengeance on them for their iniquity, in that they became servants of Satan, and led astray those who dwell upon the dry ground.

Book of Enoch 54:7
And in those days, the punishment of the Lord of spirits will go out, and all the storehouses of the waters which are above the heaven and under the earth, will be opened.

Book of Enoch 54:8
And all the waters will be joined with the waters that are above the heaven. *54:11 - 12 The water that is above the heaven is male and the water that is under the earth is female. *36:36, *51:49

Book of Enoch 54:9
And all those who dwell upon the dry ground, and those who dwell under the ends of heaven, will be wiped out.

Book of Enoch 54:10
And because of this they will acknowledge their iniquity which they have committed on the earth and through this they will be destroyed."

Book of Enoch 55:1
And after this, the Head of Days repented, and said, "I have destroyed to no purpose all those who dwell upon the dry ground."

Book of Enoch 55:2
And He swore by His great name, "From now on I will not act like this towards all those who dwell upon the dry ground. And I will put a sign in heaven, and it will be a pledge of faith between Me and them forever, so long as heaven is above the earth. *Genesis 9:11 - 13

Book of Enoch 55:3
And this will be in accordance with My command. When I want to take hold of them with the hands of the angels, on the Day of Distress and pain, in the face of My anger and My wrath, My wrath and anger will remain upon them" says the Lord, the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 55:4
"You powerful kings who dwell upon the dry ground will be obliged to watch my Chosen One sit down on the Throne of My glory, and judge, in the name of the Lord of spirits, Azazel and all his associates and all his hosts."

Book of Enoch 56:1
And I saw there the hosts of the angels of punishment, as they went, and they were holding chains of iron and bronze. *69:30 - 32

Book of Enoch 56:2
And I asked the angel of peace, who went with me, saying, "To whom are those who are holding the chains going?"

Book of Enoch 56:3
And he said to me, "Each to his own chosen ones, and to their beloved ones, so that they may be thrown into the chasm, in the depths of the valley."

Book of Enoch 56:4
And then, that valley will be filled with their chosen and beloved ones, and the days of their life will be at an end, and the days of their leading astray will no longer be counted.

Book of Enoch 56:5
And in those days, the angels will gather together, and will throw themselves towards the east, upon the Parthians and Medes. They will stir up the kings so that a disturbing spirit will come upon them, and they will drive them from their thrones; and they will come out like lions from their lairs, and like hungry wolves in the middle of their flocks.

Book of Enoch 56:6
And they will go up and trample on the land of My chosen ones, and the land of My chosen ones will become before them a tramping-ground and a beaten track.

Book of Enoch 56:7
But the city of My righteous ones will be a hindrance to their horses, and they will stir up slaughter amongst themselves, and their own right hand will be strong against them. And a man will not admit to knowing his neighbor, or his brother, nor a son his father, or his mother, until, through their death, there are corpses enough; and their punishment - it will not be in vain.

Book of Enoch 56:8
And in those days Sheol will open its mouth and they will sink into it and their destruction; Sheol will swallow up the sinners in front of the faces of the chosen."

Book of Enoch 57:1
And it came to pass, after this, that I saw another host of chariots with men riding on them, and they came upon the wind from the east and from the west, to the south.

Book of Enoch 57:2
And the sound of the noise of their chariots was heard. And when this occurred the holy ones observed it from heaven and the pillars of the earth were shaken from their foundations. And the sound was heard from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven throughout one Day.

Book of Enoch 57:3
And all will fall down and worship the Lord of spirits. And this is the end of the second parable.

Book of Enoch 58:1
And I began to speak the third parable. About the righteous and about the chosen.

Book of Enoch 58:2
Blessed are you, the righteous and the chosen, for your lot will be glorious!

Book of Enoch 58:3
And the righteous will be in the light of the sun and the chosen in the light of eternal life. And there will be no end to the days of their life and the days of the holy will be without number.

Book of Enoch 58:4
And they will seek the light and will find righteousness with the Lord of spirits. Peace be to the righteous with the Lord of the world!

Book of Enoch 58:5
And after this it will be said to the holy that they should seek in heaven the secrets of righteousness, the lot of faith; for it has become bright as the sun upon the dry ground, and darkness has passed away.

Book of Enoch 58:6
And there will be ceaseless light, and to a limit of days, they will not come, for darkness will have been destroyed previously. And the light will endure in front of the Lord of spirits, and the light of uprightness will endure in front of the Lord of spirits, forever.

Book of Enoch 59:1
And in those days my eyes saw the secrets of the flashes of lightning, and the lights, and the regulations governing them; and they flash for a blessing or a curse, as the Lord of spirits wishes.

Book of Enoch 59:2
And there I saw the secrets of the thunder and how when it crashes in heaven above the sound of it is heard. And they showed me the dwellings of the dry ground, and the sound of the thunder, for peace, and for blessing, or for a curse, according to the word of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 59:3
And after this all the secrets of the lights, and of the flashes of lightning, were shown to me. They flash to bring blessing and satisfaction.

Book of Enoch 60:1
In the fiftieth year, in the seventh month, on the fourteenth day of the month of the life of Enoch. In that parable, I saw how the heaven of heavens was shaken violently, and the host of the Most High and the angels, a thousand thousands and ten thousand times ten thousand, were extremely disturbed.

Book of Enoch 60:2
And then I saw the Head of Days sitting on the Throne of His glory and the angels and righteous were sitting around Him.

Book of Enoch 60:3
And a great trembling seized me, and fear took hold of me, and my loins collapsed and gave way, and my whole being melted, and I fell upon my face.

Book of Enoch 60:4
And the holy Michael sent another holy angel, one of the holy angels, and he raised me; and when he raised me my spirit returned, for I had been unable to endure the sight of that host, and the disturbance, and the shaking of heaven.

Book of Enoch 60:5
And the holy Michael said to me, "What sight has disturbed you like this? Until today has the day of His mercy lasted and He has been merciful and long suffering towards those who dwell upon the dry ground.

Book of Enoch 60:6
And when the Day, and the power, and the punishment, and the Judgement come that the Lord of spirits has prepared for those who worship the righteous judgement, and for those who deny the righteous judgement, and for those who take His name in vain - and that Day has been prepared. For the chosen a covenant, but for the sinners a visitation."

Book of Enoch 60:7
And on that Day two monsters will be separated from one another, a female monster whose name is Leviathan, to dwell in the depths of the sea, above the springs of the waters.

Book of Enoch 60:8
And the name of the male is Behemoth who occupies with his breast an immense desert named Dendayn on the east of the Garden where the chosen and the righteous dwell, where my great-grandfather was received, who was seventh from Adam, the first man whom the Lord of spirits made.

Book of Enoch 60:9
And I asked that other angel to show me the power of those monsters, how they were separated on one Day, and thrown, one into the depths of the sea and the other on to the dry ground of the desert.

Book of Enoch 60:10
And he said to me, "Son of man, you here wish to know what is secret."

Book of Enoch 60:11
And the other angel spoke to me, the one who went with me and showed me what is secret; what is first and last in heaven, in the heights, and under the dry ground, in the depths, and at the ends of heaven, and at the foundations of heaven, and in the storehouses of the winds.

Book of Enoch 60:12
And how the spirits are distributed, and how they are weighed. And how the springs, and the winds, are counted according to the power of their spirit. And the power of the light of the moon. And the divisions of the stars according to their names. And how all the divisions are made.

Book of Enoch 60:13
And the thunder - according to the places where it falls. And all the divisions that are made in lightning - so that it may flash. And its hosts - how they quickly obey.

Book of Enoch 60:14
For the thunder has fixed intervals, which has been given to its sound, for waiting. And the thunder and the lightning are not separate although not the same. Through a spirit the two of them move inseparably.

Book of Enoch 60:15
For when the lightning flashes the thunder utters its voice, and the spirit, at the proper time, causes it to rest, and divides equally between them because the storehouse of the times for their occurrence is like that of the sand. And each of them, at the proper time, is held by a rein, and turned back by the power of the spirit, and likewise driven forward, according to the number of the regions of the earth.

Book of Enoch 60:16
And the spirit of the sea is male and strong, and according to the power of its strength, the spirit turns it back with a rein, and likewise it is driven forward, and scattered amongst all the mountains of the earth.

Book of Enoch 60:17
And the spirit of the hoarfrost is its own angel; and the spirit of the hail, is a good angel.

Book of Enoch 60:18
And the spirit of the snow has withdrawn because of its power, and it has a special spirit, and that which rises from it is like smoke and its name is frost.

Book of Enoch 60:19
And the spirit of the mist is not associated with them in their storehouse but has a special storehouse; for its course is glorious both in light and darkness, and in winter and in summer, and its storehouse is an angel.

Book of Enoch 60:20
The spirit of the dew has its dwelling at the ends of heaven and is connected with the storehouses of the rain. And its course is in winter and in summer and its clouds. And the clouds of the mist are associated and one gives to the other.

Book of Enoch 60:21
And when the spirit of the rain moves from its storehouse the angels come and open the storehouse and bring it out. And when it is scattered over all the dry ground it joins with all the water that is on the dry ground. And whenever it joins with the water that is on the dry ground(...)

Book of Enoch 60:22
For the waters are for those who dwell upon the dry ground, for they are nourishment for the dry ground, from the Most High who is in heaven. Therefore there is a fixed measure for the rain and the angels comprehend it.

Book of Enoch 60:23
All these things, I saw towards the Garden of Righteousness.

Book of Enoch 60:24
And the angel of peace who was with me, said to me, "These two monsters, prepared in accordance with the greatness of the Lord, will feed them that punishment of the Lord. And children will be killed with their mothers and sons with their fathers.

Book of Enoch 60:25
When the punishment of the Lord of spirits rests upon them it will remain resting so that the punishment of the Lord of spirits may not come in vain upon these. Afterwards, the judgement will be according to His mercy and His patience."

Book of Enoch 61:1
And in those days, I saw long cords given to those angels and they acquired wings for themselves, and flew, and went towards the north.

Book of Enoch 61:2
And I asked the angel, saying, "Why did these take the long cords, and go?" And he said to me, "They went so that they may measure."

Book of Enoch 61:3
And the angel who went with me, said to me, "These will bring the measurements of the righteous, and the ropes of the righteous, to the righteous, that they may rely on the name of the Lord of spirits forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 61:4
The chosen will begin to dwell with the chosen, and these measurements will be given to faith, and will strengthen righteousness.

Book of Enoch 61:5
And these measurements will reveal all the secrets of the depths of the earth, and those who were destroyed by the desert, and those who were devoured by the fish of the sea, and by animals, that they may return and rely on the Day of the Chosen One. For no one will be destroyed in front of the Lord of spirits, and no one can be destroyed."

Book of Enoch 61:6
And all those in the heavens above received a command, and power, and one voice, and one light like fire was given to them.

Book of Enoch 61:7
And Him, before everything, they blessed, and exalted, and praised in wisdom. And they showed themselves wise in speech and in the spirit of life.

Book of Enoch 61:8
And the Lord of spirits set the Chosen One on the throne of his glory, and he will judge all the works of the holy ones in heaven above, and in the balance he will weigh their deeds.

Book of Enoch 61:9
And when he lifts his face to judge their secret ways according to the word of the name of the Lord of spirits, and their path according to the way of the righteous judgement of the Lord Most High, they will all speak with one voice and bless, and praise, and exalt, and glorify, the name of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 61:10
And He will call all the host of the heavens and all the holy ones above, and the host of the Lord, the cherubim, and the Seraphim, and the Ophannim, and all the angels of power, and all the angels of the principalities, and the Chosen One, and the other host that is upon the dry ground, and over the water, on that Day.

Book of Enoch 61:11
And they will raise one voice, and will bless, and praise, and glorify, and exalt, in the spirit of faith, and in the spirit of wisdom, and of patience, and in the spirit of mercy, and in the spirit of justice, and of peace, and in the spirit of goodness. And they will all say with one voice, "Blessed is He, and blessed is the name of the Lord of spirits forever and ever."

Book of Enoch 61:12
All those who do not sleep in heaven above will bless Him. All His holy ones who are in heaven, will bless Him, and all the chosen ones who dwell in the Garden of Life, and every spirit able to bless, and praise and exalt, and hallow Your holy name. And all flesh which to the limit of its power, will praise, and bless, Your name forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 61:13
For great is the mercy of the Lord of spirits, and He is long-suffering; and all His works and all His forces, as many as He has made, He has revealed to the righteous and the chosen, in the name of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 62:1
And thus the Lord commanded the kings, and the mighty and the exalted, and those who dwell upon the earth, and said, "Open your eyes and raise your horns if you are able to acknowledge the Chosen One."

Book of Enoch 62:2
And the Lord of spirits sat on His Throne of glory, and the spirit of righteousness was poured out on him, and the word of his mouth kills all the sinners and all the lawless, and they are destroyed in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 62:3
And on that Day, all the kings and the mighty and the exalted, and those who possess the earth, will stand up and they will see and recognize how He sits on the Throne of His glory. And the righteous are judged in righteousness, in front of Him, and no idle word is spoken in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 62:4
And pain will come upon them as upon a woman in labor, for whom giving birth is difficult when her child enters the mouth of the womb, and she has difficulty giving birth.

Book of Enoch 62:5
And one half of them will look at the other, and they will be terrified, and will cast down their faces, and pain will take hold of them when they see that son of a woman sitting on the throne of his glory.

Book of Enoch 62:6
And the mighty kings, and all those who possess the earth, will praise and bless and exalt Him who rules everything that is hidden.

Book of Enoch 62:7
For from the beginning that Son of man was hidden, and the Most High kept him in the presence of His power, and revealed him only to the chosen.

Book of Enoch 62:8
And the community of the holy and the chosen will be sown and all the chosen will stand before him on that Day.

Book of Enoch 62:9
And all the mighty kings, and the exalted, and those who rule the dry ground, will fall down before him, on their faces, and worship; and they will set their hopes on that Son of man, and will entreat him, and will petition for mercy from him.

Book of Enoch 62:10
But the Lord of spirits will then so press them that they will hasten to go out from before Him, and their faces will be filled with shame, and the darkness will grow deeper on their faces.

Book of Enoch 62:11
And the angels of punishment will take them so that they may repay them for the wrong that they did to His children and to His chosen ones.

Book of Enoch 62:12
And they will become a spectacle to the righteous and to His chosen ones; they will rejoice over them, for the anger of the Lord of spirits will rest upon them, and the sword of the Lord of spirits will be drunk with them.

Book of Enoch 62:13
And the righteous and the chosen will be saved on that Day and they will never see the faces of the sinners and the lawless from then on.

Book of Enoch 62:14
And the Lord of spirits will remain over them and with that Son of man they will dwell, and eat, and lie down, and rise up, forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 62:15
And the righteous and chosen will have risen from the earth, and will have ceased to cast down their faces, and will have put on the Garment of Life.

Book of Enoch 62:16
And this will be a Garment of Life from the Lord of spirits; and your garments will not wear out, and your glory will not fail, in front of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 63:1
In those days, the mighty kings who possess the dry ground will entreat the angels of His punishment to whom they have been handed over so that they might give them a little respite. And so that they might fall down and worship in front of the Lord of spirits, and confess their sins in front of Him. *Shepherd of Hermas 17:5, *2:167, *6:27, *23:99 - 100, *23:107, *26:102, *32:12, *35:37, *39:58

Book of Enoch 63:2
And they will bless and praise the Lord of spirits, and say, "Blessed is the Lord of spirits, and the Lord of kings, the Lord of the mighty, and the Lord of the rich, and the Lord of glory, and the Lord of wisdom!

Book of Enoch 63:3
And everything secret is clear, in front of You, and Your power is for all generations, and Your glory is forever and ever. Deep and without number are all Your secrets and Your righteousness is beyond reckoning.

Book of Enoch 63:4
Now we realize that we ought to praise and bless the Lord of kings and the One who is King over all kings."

Book of Enoch 63:6
And now we long for a respite, but do not find it; we are driven off and do not obtain it; and the light has passed away from before us, and darkness will be our dwelling forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 63:7
For we have not made our confession before Him, and we have not praised the name of the Lord of kings, and we have not praised the Lord for all His works, but our hopes have been on the sceptre of our kingdom, and of our glory.

Book of Enoch 63:8
And on the day of our affliction and distress He does not save us, and we find no respite to make our confession that our Lord is faithful in all His doings, and in all His judgments and His justice, and that His judgments show no partiality.

Book of Enoch 63:9
And we pass away from in front of Him because of all our works and all our sins have been counted exactly."

Book of Enoch 63:10
Then they will say to them, "Our souls are sated with possessions gained through iniquity, but they do not prevent our going down into the flames of the torment of Sheol." *2:48, *2:123, *3:91, *5:36, *10:54, *13:18, *39:47, *57:15

Book of Enoch 63:11
And after this their faces will be filled with darkness and shame, in front of that Son of man, and they will be driven away from him. And the sword will dwell among them - in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 63:12
And thus the Lord of spirits says, "This is the law and the Judgement for the mighty, and the kings, and the exalted, and for those who possess the dry ground, in front of the Lord of spirits."

Book of Enoch 64:1
And I saw other figures hidden in that place.

Book of Enoch 64:2
I heard the voice of the angel saying, "These are the angels who came down from heaven onto the earth and revealed what is secret to the sons of men, and led astray the sons of men, so that they committed sin."

Book of Enoch 65:1
And in those days, Noah saw the earth had tilted and that its destruction was near.

Book of Enoch 65:2
And he set off from there and went to the ends of the earth and cried out to his great-grandfather Enoch; and Noah said three times in a bitter voice, "Hear me, hear me, hear me!"

Book of Enoch 65:3
And he said to him, "Tell me, what is it that is being done on the earth, that the earth is so afflicted and shaken, lest I be destroyed with it!"

Book of Enoch 65:4
And immediately there was a great disturbance on the earth and a voice was heard from heaven and I fell upon my face.

Book of Enoch 65:5
And my great-grandfather Enoch came, stood by me, and said to me, "Why did you cry out to me, with such bitter crying and weeping?

Book of Enoch 65:6
And a command has gone out from the Lord against those who dwell upon the dry ground that this must be their end. For they have learned all the secrets of the angels, and all the wrongdoings of the devils, and all their secret power, and all the power of those who practice magic arts, and the power of enchantments, and the power of those who cast molten images for all the earth.

Book of Enoch 65:7
And further, how silver is produced from the dust of the earth and how soft metal occurs on the earth.

Book of Enoch 65:8
For lead and tin are not produced from the earth, like the former; there is a spring which produces them, and an angel who stands in it, and that angel distributes them."

Book of Enoch 65:9
And after this, my great-grandfather Enoch took hold of me with his hand, and raised me, and said to me, "Go, for I have asked the Lord of spirits about this disturbance on the earth."

Book of Enoch 65:10
And he said to me, "Because of their iniquity, their judgement has been completed, and they will no longer be counted before me; because of the sorceries they have searched out and learned, the earth and those who dwell upon it will be destroyed.

Book of Enoch 65:11
And for these, there will be no place of refuge, forever, for they showed to them what is secret, and they have been condemned; but not so for you, my son; the Lord of spirits knows that you are pure and innocent of this reproach concerning the secrets.

Book of Enoch 65:12
And He has established your name among the holy, and will keep you from among those who dwell upon the dry ground; and He has destined your offspring in righteousness, to be kings, and for great honors. And from your offspring will flow out a spring of the righteous and holy, without number forever."

Book of Enoch 66:1
And after this, he showed me the angels of punishment, who were ready to come and release all the forces of the water, which is under the earth, in order to bring judgement and destruction on all those who reside and dwell upon the dry ground.

Book of Enoch 66:2
And the Lord of spirits commanded the angels who were coming out, not to raise their hands, but to keep watch; for those angels were in charge of the forces of the waters.

Book of Enoch 66:3
And I came out from before Enoch.

Book of Enoch 67:1
And in those days, the word of the Lord came to me, and He said to me, "Noah, behold; your lot has come up before Me, a lot without reproach, a lot of love and uprightness.

Book of Enoch 67:2
And now the angels are making a wooden structure, and when the angels come out from that task, I will put My hand on it, and keep it safe. And a change shall take place so that the dry ground may not remain empty.

Book of Enoch 67:3
And I will establish your offspring before Me, forever and ever, and I will scatter those who dwell with you, over the face of the dry ground. I will not again put them to the test, on the face of the earth, but they will be blessed and increase on the dry ground in the name of the Lord."

Book of Enoch 67:4
And they will shut up those angels, who showed iniquity, in that burning valley, which my great-grandfather Enoch had shown to me previously, in the west, near the mountains of gold and silver and iron and soft metal and tin.

Book of Enoch 67:5
And I saw that valley, in which there was a great disturbance, and a heaving of the waters.

Book of Enoch 67:6
And when all this happened, from the fiery molten metal, and the disturbance, which disturbed the waters in that place, a smell of sulfur was produced, and it was associated with those waters. And that valley of the angels, who led men astray, burns under the ground.

Book of Enoch 67:7
And through the valleys of that same area, flow out rivers of fire where those angels will be punished, who led astray those on the dry ground.

Book of Enoch 67:8
And in those days, those waters will serve the kings, and the mighty, and the exalted, and those who dwell upon dry ground, for the healing of soul and body, but also for the punishment of the spirit. And their spirits are so full of lust that they will be punished in their bodies, for they denied the Lord of spirits. And they see their punishment every day yet they do not believe in His name.

Book of Enoch 67:9
And the more their bodies are burnt, the more a change will come over their spirits, forever and ever; for no one can speak an idle word in front of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 67:10
For judgement will come upon them, for they believe in the lust of their bodies, but deny the Spirit of the Lord.

Book of Enoch 67:11
And those same waters will undergo a change in those days; for when those angels are punished in those days, the temperature of those springs of water will change, and when the angels come up, that water of the springs will change, and become cold.

Book of Enoch 67:12
And I heard the holy Michael answering and saying, "This judgement, with which the angels are judged, is a testimony for the kings and the mighty who possess the dry ground.

Book of Enoch 67:13
For these waters of judgement serve for the healing of the bodies of the kings, and for the lust of their bodies; but they do not see, and do not believe, that these waters will change, and will become a fire which burns forever."

Book of Enoch 68:1
And after this, my great-grandfather Enoch gave me the explanation of all the secrets, in a book, and the parables that had been given to him; and he put them together for me, in the words of the Book of Parables.

Book of Enoch 68:2
And on that Day the holy Michael answered Raphael, saying, "The power of the spirit seizes me and makes me tremble because of the harshness of the judgement of the angels. Who can endure the harshness of the Judgement which has been executed and before which they melt with fear?"

Book of Enoch 68:3
And the holy Michael answered Raphael again, and said to him, "Who would not soften his heart over it, and whose mind would not be disturbed by this word? Judgement has gone out against them, upon those whom they have led out like this."

Book of Enoch 68:4
But it came to pass, when he stood before the Lord of spirits, that the holy Michael spoke as follows to Raphael, "I will not take their part under the eye of the Lord, for the Lord of spirits is angry with them, because they act as if they were the Lord.

Book of Enoch 68:5
Because of this, the hidden judgement will come upon them forever and ever; for neither any other angel, nor any man, will receive their lot, but they alone have received their judgement forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 69:1
And after this judgement I will terrify them, and make them tremble, for they have shown this to those who dwell upon the dry ground."

Book of Enoch 69:2
And behold, the names of those angels, the first of them is Semyaza, and the second Artaqifa, and the third Armen, and the fourth Kokabiel, and the fifth Turiel, and the sixth Ramiel, and the seventh Daniel, and the eighth Nuqael, and the ninth Baraqiel, and the tenth Azazel, and the eleventh Armaros, the twelfth Batriel, the thirteenth Basasael, the fourteenth Ananel, the fifteenth Turiel, the sixteenth Samsiel, the seventeenth Yetarel, the eighteenth Tumiel, the nineteenth Turiel, the twentieth Rumiel, the twenty-first Azazel.

Book of Enoch 69:3
And these are the chiefs of their angels, and the names of the leaders of hundreds, and their leaders of fifties, and their leaders of tens.

Book of Enoch 69:4
The name of the first is Yequn; this is the one who led astray all the children of the holy angels, and he brought them down onto the dry ground, and led them astray through the daughters of men.

Book of Enoch 69:5
And the name of the second is Asbeel; this one suggested an evil plan to the children of the holy angels, and led them astray, so that they corrupted their bodies with the daughters of men.

Book of Enoch 69:6
And the name of the third is Gadreel; this is the one that showed all the deadly blows to the sons of men. And he led astray Eve. And he showed the weapons of death to the children of men, the shield and the breastplate, and the sword for slaughter, and all the weapons of death to the sons of men.

Book of Enoch 69:7
And from his hand they have gone out against those who dwell the dry ground from that time and forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 69:8
And the name of the fourth is Penemue; this one showed the sons of men the bitter and the sweet and showed them all the secrets of their wisdom.

Book of Enoch 69:9
He taught men the art of writing with ink and paper, and through this many have gone astray, from eternity to eternity, and to this day.

Book of Enoch 69:10
For men were not created for this, that they should confirm their faith like this, with pen and ink.

Book of Enoch 69:11
For men were created no differently from the angels, so that they might remain righteous and pure, and death, which destroys everything, would not have touched them; but through this knowledge of theirs they are being destroyed and through this power death consumes them.

Book of Enoch 69:12
And the name of the fifth is Kasdeyae; this one showed the sons of men all the evil blows of the spirits and of the demons, and the blows that attack the embryo in the womb so that it miscarries. And the blows that attack the soul, the bite of the serpent. And the blows that occur at midday, and the son of the serpent - who is strong.

Book of Enoch 69:13
And this is the task of Kesbeel, the chief of the oath, who showed the oath to the holy ones when he dwelt on high in glory. And his name is Beqa.

Book of Enoch 69:14
And this one told the holy Michael that he should show him the secret name so that they might mention it in the oath, so that those, who showed the sons of men everything that is secret, trembled before that name and oath.

Book of Enoch 69:15
And this is the power of this oath, for it is powerful and strong, and he placed this oath, Akae, in the charge of the holy Michael.

Book of Enoch 69:16
And these are the secrets of this oath, and they are strong through this oath, and heaven was suspended, before the world was created, and forever.

Book of Enoch 69:17
And through it the earth was founded upon the water, and from the hidden recesses of the mountains come beautiful waters, from the creation of the world and forever.

Book of Enoch 69:18
And through that oath the sea was created, and as its foundation, for the time of anger, He placed for it the sand, and it does not go beyond it, from the creation of the world and forever.

Book of Enoch 69:19
And through that oath the deeps were made firm, and they stand and do not move from their place, from the creation of the world and forever.

Book of Enoch 69:20
And through that oath the sun and the moon complete their course and do not transgress their command, from the creation of the world and forever.

Book of Enoch 69:21
And through that oath the stars complete their course, and He calls their names, and they answer Him, from the creation of the world and forever.

Book of Enoch 69:22
And likewise the spirits of the water, of the winds, and of all the breezes, and their paths, according to all the groups of the spirits.

Book of Enoch 69:23
And there are kept the storehouses of the sound of thunder, and of the light of the lightning; and there are kept the storehouses of the hail, and the hoarfrost, and the storehouses of the mist, and the storehouses of the rain and dew.

Book of Enoch 69:24
And all these make their confession and give thanks in front of the Lord of spirits and sing praises with all their power. And their food consists of all their thanksgiving and they give thanks, praise, and exalt, in the name of the Lord of spirits, forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 69:25
And this oath is strong over them and through it they are kept safe and their courses are not disturbed.

Book of Enoch 69:26
And they had great joy and they blessed, praised, and exalted, because the name of that Son of man had been revealed to them.

Book of Enoch 69:27
And he sat on the throne of his glory and the whole judgement was given to the Son of man and he will cause the sinners to pass away and be destroyed from the face of the earth.

Book of Enoch 69:28
And those who led astray the world will be bound in chains *14:49 and will be shut up in the assembly place of their destruction, and all their works will pass away from the face of the earth.

Book of Enoch 69:29
And from then on there will be nothing corruptible. For that Son of man has appeared, and has sat on the throne of his glory, and everything evil will pass away and go from in front of him; and the word of that Son of man will be strong in front of the Lord of spirits. This is the third parable of Enoch.

Book of Enoch 70:1
And it came to pass, after this, that while he was living, his name was lifted from those who dwell upon the dry ground to the presence of that Son of man, and to the presence of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 70:2
And he was lifted on the chariots of the spirit, and his name vanished from among them.

Book of Enoch 70:3
And from that day I was not counted among them, and He placed me between two winds, between the north and the west, where the angels took the cords to measure for me the place for the chosen and the righteous.

Book of Enoch 70:4
And there I saw the first fathers and the righteous who from the beginning of the world dwelt in that place.

Book of Enoch 71:1
And it came to pass, after this, that my spirit was carried off, and it went up into the heavens. I saw the sons of the holy angels treading upon flames of fire, their garments were white, and their clothing, and the light of their face, was like snow.

Book of Enoch 71:2
And I saw two rivers of fire, and the light of that fire shone like a hyacinth, and I fell upon my face in front of the Lord of spirits.

Book of Enoch 71:3
And the angel Michael, one of the archangels, took hold of me by my right hand, and raised me and led me out to all the secrets of mercy, and the secrets of righteousness.

Book of Enoch 71:4
And he showed me all the secrets of the ends of heaven and all the storehouses of the stars and the lights from where they come out from below the holy ones.

Book of Enoch 71:5
And the Spirit carried Enoch off to the highest heaven, and I saw there, in the middle of that light, something built of crystal stones, and in the middle of those stones tongues of living fire.

Book of Enoch 71:6
And my spirit saw a circle of fire, which surrounded that house; from its four sides came rivers, full of living fire, and they surrounded that house.

Book of Enoch 71:7
And round about were the Seraphim and the cherubim, and the Ophannim; these are those who do not sleep but keep watch over the Throne of His glory.

Book of Enoch 71:8
And I saw angels, who could not be counted, a thousand thousands and ten thousand times ten thousand, surrounding that house. And Michael, and Raphael, and Gabriel, and Phanuel, and the holy angels who are in the heavens above, went in and out of that house.

Book of Enoch 71:9
And Michael, and Raphael, and Gabriel, and Phanuel, and many holy angels without number, came out from that house.

Book of Enoch 71:10
And with them the Head of Days, His head white, and pure, like wool and His garments - indescribable.

Book of Enoch 71:11
And I fell upon my face, and my whole body melted, and my spirit was transformed; and I cried out in a loud voice, in the spirit of power, and I blessed, praised, and exalted.

Book of Enoch 71:12
And these blessings, which came out from my mouth, were pleasing before that Head of Days.

Book of Enoch 71:13
And that Head of Days came with Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and Phanuel, and thousands and tens of thousands of angels without number.

Book of Enoch 71:14
And that angel, came to me, and greeted me with his voice, and said to me, "You are the Son of man who was born to righteousness, and righteousness remains over you and the righteousness of the Head of Days, will not leave you."

Book of Enoch 71:15
And he said to me, "He proclaims peace to you in the name of the world which is to come, for from there peace has come out from the creation of the world and so you will have it forever and forever and ever.

Book of Enoch 71:16
And all will walk according to your way, inasmuch as righteousness will never leave you. With you will be their dwelling, and with you their lot, and they will not be separated from you forever and forever and ever. And so there will be length of days with that Son of man, and the righteous will have peace, and the righteous will have an upright way in the name of the Lord of spirits, forever and ever."

Book of Enoch 72:1
The Book of the revolutions of the lights of heaven. Each as it is; according to their classes, according to their period of rule and their times, according to their names and places of origin, and according to their months. That Uriel, the holy angel who was with me, and is their leader, showed to me. And he showed me all their regulations, exactly as they are, for each year of the world and forever, until the new creation shall be made which will last forever.

Book of Enoch 72:2
And this is the first law of the lights. The light called the sun; its rising is in the gates of heaven that are towards the east, and its setting is in the western gates of heaven.

Book of Enoch 72:3
And I saw six gates from which the sun rises, and six gates in which the sun sets, and the moon also rises and sets in those gates, and the leaders of the stars together with those whom they lead. There are six in the east and six in the west, all exactly in place, one next to the other; and there are many windows to the south and the north of those gates.

Book of Enoch 72:4
And first there rises the greater light, named the sun, and its disc is like the disc of heaven, and the whole of it is full of a fire which gives light and warmth.

Book of Enoch 72:5
The wind blows the chariots on which it ascends, and the sun goes down in the heaven and returns through the north in order to reach the east, and is led so that it comes to the appropriate gate and shines in the heaven.

Book of Enoch 72:6
In this way it rises in the first month, in the large gate, namely; it rises through the fourth of those six gates that are towards the east.

Book of Enoch 72:7
And in that fourth gate, through which the sun rises in the first month, there are twelve window-openings from which, whenever they are opened, flames come out.

Book of Enoch 72:8
When the sun rises in heaven it goes out through that fourth gate for thirty days, and exactly in the fourth gate, in the west of heaven, it goes down.

Book of Enoch 72:9
And in those days the day grows daily longer, and the night grows nightly shorter, until the thirtieth morning.

Book of Enoch 72:10
And on that day the day becomes longer than the night by a double part, and the day amounts to exactly ten parts, and the night amounts to eight parts.

Book of Enoch 72:11
And the sun rises from that fourth gate, and sets in the fourth gate, and returns to the fifth gate in the east for thirty mornings; and it rises from it and sets in the fifth gate.

Book of Enoch 72:12
And then the day becomes longer by two parts, and the day amounts to eleven parts, and the night becomes shorter and amounts to seven parts.

Book of Enoch 72:13
And the sun returns to the east and comes to the sixth gate, and rises and sets in the sixth gate for thirty-one mornings, because of its sign.

Book of Enoch 72:14
And on that day the day becomes longer than the night, and the day becomes double the night; and the day amounts to twelve parts, and the night becomes shorter and amounts to six parts.

Book of Enoch 72:15
And the sun rises up so that the day may grow shorter, and the night longer; and the sun returns to the east, and comes to the sixth gate, and rises from it, and sets, for thirty mornings.

Book of Enoch 72:16
And when thirty mornings have been completed the day becomes shorter, by exactly one part; and the day amounts to eleven parts, and the night to seven parts.

Book of Enoch 72:17
And the sun goes out from the west, through that sixth gate, and goes to the east, and rises in the fifth gate for thirty mornings and it sets in the west again, in the fifth gate in the west.

Book of Enoch 72:18
On that day the day becomes shorter by two parts, and the day amounts to ten parts, and the night to eight parts.

Book of Enoch 72:19
And the sun rises from that fifth gate, and sets in the fifth gate in the west, and rises in the fourth gate for thirty-one mornings because of its sign, and sets in the west.

Book of Enoch 72:20
On that day the day becomes equal with the night, and is of equal length; and the night amounts to nine parts, and the day to nine parts.

Book of Enoch 72:21
And the sun rises from that gate and sets in the west, and returns to the east, and rises in the third gate for thirty mornings, and sets in the west in the third gate.

Book of Enoch 72:22
And the sun rises from that third gate, and sets in the third gate in the west, and returns to the east; and the sun rises in the second gate in the east for thirty mornings, and likewise, it sets in the second gate, in the west of heaven.

Book of Enoch 72:24
And on that day the night amounts to eleven parts and the day to seven parts.

Book of Enoch 72:25
And the sun rises, on that day, from the second gate, and sets in the west in the second gate, and returns to the east to the first gate for thirtyone mornings, then sets in the west in the first gate.

Book of Enoch 72:26
And on that day the night becomes longer, and becomes double the day; and the night amounts to exactly twelve parts, and the day to six parts.

Book of Enoch 72:27
And with this, the sun has completed the divisions of its journey, and it turns back again, along these divisions of its journey; and it comes through that first gate for thirty mornings, and sets in the west opposite it.

Book of Enoch 72:28
And on that day the night becomes shorter in length by one part, and amounts to eleven parts, and the day to seven parts.

Book of Enoch 72:29
And the sun returns, and comes to the second gate in the east, and it returns along those divisions of its journey for thirty mornings, rising and setting.

Book of Enoch 72:30
And on that day the night becomes shorter in length and the night amounts to ten parts and the day to eight parts.

Book of Enoch 72:31
And on that day, the sun rises from the second gate, and sets in the west, and returns to the east, and rises in the third gate for thirty one mornings, and sets in the west of the heaven.

Book of Enoch 72:32
And on that day the night becomes shorter, and amounts to nine parts, and the day amounts to nine parts, and the night becomes equal with the day. And the year amounts to exactly days.

Book of Enoch 72:33
And the length of the day and the night, and the shortness of the day and the night - they are different because of the journey of the sun.

Book of Enoch 72:34
Because of it, its journey becomes daily longer, and nightly shorter.

Book of Enoch 72:35
And this is the law and the journey of the sun and its return, as often as it returns; sixty times it returns and rises, that is the great eternal light, which forever and ever is named the sun.

Book of Enoch 72:36
And this that rises is the great light, which is named after its appearance, as the Lord commanded.

Book of Enoch 72:37
And thus it rises and sets; it neither decreases, nor rests, but runs day and night in its chariot. And its light is seven times brighter than that of the moon but in size the two are equal.

Book of Enoch 73:1
And after this law I saw another law, for the lesser light, named the moon.

Book of Enoch 73:2
And its disc is like the disc of the sun, and the wind blows its chariot on which it rides, and in fixed measure light is given to it.

Book of Enoch 73:3
And every month its rising and setting change, and its days are as the days of the sun, and when its light is uniformly full, it is a seventh part the light of the sun.

Book of Enoch 73:4
And thus it rises, and its first phase is towards the east; it rises on the thirtieth morning. And on that day it appears, and becomes for you the first phase of the moon, on the thirtieth morning, together with the sun in the gate through which the sun rises.

Book of Enoch 73:5
And a half (...) with a seventh part, and its entire disc is empty, without light, except for a seventh part, a fourteenth part of its light.

Book of Enoch 73:6
And on the day that it receives a seventh part and a half of its light, its light amounts to a seventh, and a seventh part and a half.

Book of Enoch 73:7
It sets with the sun, and when the sun rises, the moon rises with it, and receives a half of one part of light. And on that night at the beginning of its morning, at the beginning of the moon's day, the moon sets with the sun, and is dark on that night in six and seven parts and a half.

Book of Enoch 73:8
And it rises on that day, with exactly a seventh part, goes out, recedes from the rising of the sun, and becomes bright on the remainder of its days, in the other six and seven parts.

Book of Enoch 74:1
And another journey, and law, I saw for it, in that according to this law it makes its monthly journey.

Book of Enoch 74:2
And Uriel, the holy angel who is leader of them all, showed me everything, and I wrote down their positions as he showed them to me. And I wrote down their months, as they are, and the appearance of their light, until fifteen days have been completed.

Book of Enoch 74:3
In seventh parts it makes all its darkness full, and in seventh parts it makes all its light full, in the east and in the west.

Book of Enoch 74:4
And in certain months, it changes its setting, and in certain months, it follows its own individual course.

Book of Enoch 74:5
In two months it sets with the sun, in those two gates that are in the middle, in the third and in the fourth gate.

Book of Enoch 74:6
It goes out for seven days and turns back, and returns again to the gate from which the sun rises. And in that gate it makes all its light full, and it recedes from the sun, and comes, in eight days, to the sixth gate from which the sun rises.

Book of Enoch 74:7
And when the sun rises from the fourth gate, the moon goes out for seven days, until it rises from the fifth gate. And again it returns in seven days to the fourth gate, makes all its light full, recedes, and comes to the first gate in eight days.

Book of Enoch 74:8
And again it returns in seven days to the fourth gate from which the sun rises.

Book of Enoch 74:9
Thus I saw their positions; how the moon rose and the sun set in those days.

Book of Enoch 74:10
And if five years are added together, the sun has an excess of thirty days. For each year, of the five years, there are three hundred and sixty four days.

Book of Enoch 74:11
And the excess, of the sun and the stars, comes to six days. In five years, with six days each, they have an excess of thirty days, and the moon falls behind the sun and the stars by thirty days.

Book of Enoch 74:12
And the moon conducts the years exactly, all of them according to their eternal positions; they are neither early nor late, even by one day, but change the year in exactly 364 days.

Book of Enoch 74:13
In three years, there are 1,092 days, and in five years 1,820 days, so that in eight years there are 2,912 days.

Book of Enoch 74:14
For the moon alone, the days in three years come to 1,062 days, and in five years it is fifty days behind.

Book of Enoch 74:15
And there are 1,770 days in five years so that for the moon the days in eight years amount to 2,832 days.

Book of Enoch 74:16
For the difference in eight years is eighty days, and all the days that the moon is behind, in eight years, are eighty days. And the year is completed exactly, in accordance with their positions, and the positions of the sun, in that they rise from the gates from which the sun rises and sets for thirty days.

Book of Enoch 75:1
And the leaders of the tens of thousands, who are in charge of the whole of creation, and in charge of all the stars, and also the four days which are added, and are not separated from their position, according to the whole reckoning of the year. And these serve on the four days that are not counted in the reckoning of the year.

Book of Enoch 75:2
And because of them men go wrong in them. For these lights really serve in the stations of the world, one in the first gate, and one in the third gate, and one in the fourth gate, and one in the sixth gate. And the exact harmony of the world is completed in the separate 364 stations of the world.

Book of Enoch 75:3
For the signs, and the times, and the years, and the days, were shown to me by the angel Uriel whom the Lord of eternal glory has placed in charge of all the lights of heaven. In heaven and in the world, so that they might rule on the face of heaven, and appear over the earth, and be leaders of day and night; the sun, the moon, the stars, and all the serving creatures who revolve in all the chariots of heaven.

Book of Enoch 75:4
Likewise, Uriel showed to me twelve gate-openings in the disc of the chariot of the sun, in the heaven, from which the rays of the sun come out. And from them heat comes out over the earth when they are opened at the times that are appointed for them.

Book of Enoch 75:5
And there are openings for the winds, and for the spirit of the dew, when they are opened at their times, opened in heaven, at the ends of the earth.

Book of Enoch 75:6
I saw twelve gates in heaven, at the ends of the earth, from which the sun, and the moon, and the stars, and all the works of heaven, go out in the east and in the west.

Book of Enoch 75:7
And there are many window-openings to the north and to the south, and each window, at its appointed time, sends out heat corresponding to those gates, from which the stars go out, in accordance with His command to them, and in which they set according to their number.

Book of Enoch 75:8
And I saw chariots in heaven, running through the region above those gates, in which the stars that never set rotate.

Book of Enoch 75:9
And one is bigger than all the others. And it goes round through the whole world.

Book of Enoch 76:1
And at the ends of the earth, I saw twelve gates open to all the winds, from which the winds come out and blow over the earth.

Book of Enoch 76:2
Three of them open in the front of heaven, and three in the back, and three on the right of heaven, and three on the left.

Book of Enoch 76:3
And the three first are those towards the east, and then the three towards the north, and the three after these towards the south, and the three in the west.

Book of Enoch 76:4
Through four of them come winds of blessing and peace. And from the other eight come winds of punishment; when they are sent they bring devastation to the whole earth, and to the water which is on it, and to all those who dwell upon it, and to everything that is in the water and on dry ground.

Book of Enoch 76:5
And the first wind from those gates, called the east wind, comes out through the first gate, which is towards the east. The one that comes from the south brings devastation, drought, heat, and destruction.

Book of Enoch 76:6
And through the second gate, in the middle, comes what is right. And from it come rain, and fruitfulness, and prosperity, and dew. And through the third gate, which is towards the north, comes cold and drought.

Book of Enoch 76:7
And after these, the winds towards the south come out, through three gates. First, through the first of the gates, which inclines towards the east, comes a hot wind.

Book of Enoch 76:8
And through the middle gate, which is next to it, come pleasant fragrances, and dew, and rain, and prosperity, and life.

Book of Enoch 76:9
And through the third gate, which is towards the west, come dew, and rain, and locusts, and devastation.

Book of Enoch 76:10
And after these, the winds towards the north (...) from the seventh gate, which is towards the east, come dew and rain, locusts and devastation.

Book of Enoch 76:11
And through the gate exactly in the middle, come rain, and dew, and life, and prosperity. And through the third gate, which is towards the west come mist and hoarfrost, and snow, and rain, and dew, and locusts.

Book of Enoch 76:12
And after these the winds towards the west. Through the first gate, which inclines towards the north, come dew, and rain, and hoarfrost, and cold, and snow, and frost. And from the middle gate, come dew and rain, prosperity and blessing. And through the last gate, which is towards the south, come drought and devastation, burning and destruction. And thus the twelve gates, of the four quarters of heaven are complete. And all their laws, and all their punishments, and all their benefits, I have shown to you, my son Methuselah.

Book of Enoch 77:1
They called the first quarter eastern because it is the first, and they call the second the south because there the Most High descends, and there especially the One who is blessed forever descends.

Book of Enoch 77:2
And the western quarter is called waning because there all the lights of heaven wane and go down.

Book of Enoch 77:3
And the fourth quarter, named the north, is divided into three parts. And the first of them is the dwelling place for men; and the second contains seas of water, and the deeps, and the forests, and rivers, and darkness and mist; and the third part contains the Garden of Righteousness.

Book of Enoch 77:4
I saw seven high mountains, which were higher than all other mountains on the earth; and from them snow comes. And days and times and years, pass away and go by.

Book of Enoch 77:5
I saw seven rivers on the earth, larger than all the other rivers; one of them comes from the east and pours out its waters into the Great Sea.

Book of Enoch 77:6
And two of them come from the north to the sea and pour out their water into the Erythraean Sea in the east.

Book of Enoch 77:7
And the remaining four flow out on the side of the north, to their seas, two to the Erythraean Sea, and two into the Great Sea, and they discharge themselves there, and not into the wilderness, as some say.

Book of Enoch 77:8
I saw seven large islands, in the sea and on the land, two on the land, and five in the Great Sea.

Book of Enoch 78:1
The names of the sun are as follows, the first Oryares, and the second Tomases.

Book of Enoch 78:2
The moon has four names, the first name is Asonya, and the second Ebla, and the third Benase, and the fourth Era'e.

Book of Enoch 78:3
These are the two great lights; their disc is like the disc of heaven and in size the two are equal.

Book of Enoch 78:4
In the disc of the sun, are seven parts of light, which are added to it more than to the moon, and in fixed measure light is transferred to the moon until a seventh part of the sun is exhausted.

Book of Enoch 78:5
And they set, go into the gates of the west, go round through the north, and rise through the gates of the east, on the face of heaven.

Book of Enoch 78:6
And when the moon rises, it appears in the heaven, and has a half of a seventh part of light, and on the fourteenth day it makes all its light full.

Book of Enoch 78:7
And fifteen parts of light are transferred to it, until on the fifteenth day its light is full, according to the sign of the year, and amounts to fifteen parts. And the moon comes into being by halves of a seventh part.

Book of Enoch 78:8
And in its waning on the first day, it decreases to fourteen parts of its light. And on the second to thirteen parts, and on the third to twelve parts, on the fourth to eleven parts, and on the fifth to ten parts, and on the sixth to nine parts, and on the seventh to eight parts, and on the eighth to seven parts, and on the ninth to six parts, and on the tenth to five parts, and on the eleventh to four parts, and on the twelfth to three, and on the thirteenth to two, and on the fourteenth to half of a seventh part. And all the light that remains from the total disappears on the fifteenth day.

Book of Enoch 78:9
And in certain months the moon has twenty-nine days and once twenty-eight.

Book of Enoch 78:10
And Uriel showed me another law, when light is transferred to the moon, and on which side it is transferred from the sun.

Book of Enoch 78:11
All the time that the moon is increasing in its light, it transfers as it becomes opposite the sun, until in fourteen days its light is full in the heaven; and when it is all ablaze, its light is full in the heaven.

Book of Enoch 78:12
And on the first day it is called the new moon, for on that, daylight rises on it.

Book of Enoch 78:13
And its light becomes full exactly on the day that as the sun goes down in the west it rises from the east for the night. And the moon shines for the whole night until the sun rises opposite it, and the moon is seen opposite the sun.

Book of Enoch 78:14
And on the side on which the light of the moon appears, there again it wanes, until all its light disappears, and the days of the moon end and its disc remains empty without light.

Book of Enoch 78:15
And for three months, at its proper time, it achieves thirty days, and for three months, it achieves twenty-nine days, during which it completes its waning, in the first period, in the first gate, it achieves one hundred and seventy-seven days.

Book of Enoch 78:16
And in the time of its rising, for three months, it appears in each month with thirty days. And for three months it appears in each month with twenty-nine days. By night, for twenty days each time, it looks like a man, and by day like heaven, for there is nothing else in it except its light.

Book of Enoch 79:1
And now, my son Methuselah, I have shown you everything, and the whole law of the stars of heaven is complete.

Book of Enoch 79:2
And he showed me the whole law for these, for every day, and for every time, and for every rule, and for every year, and for the end thereof, according to its command, for every month and every week.

Book of Enoch 79:3
And the waning of the moon, which occurs in the sixth gate, for in that sixth gate its light becomes full, and after that it is the beginning of the month.

Book of Enoch 79:4
And the waning, which occurs in the first gate, at its proper time, until one hundred and seventy-seven days are complete, or by weeks; twenty-five weeks and two days.

Book of Enoch 79:5
And how it falls behind the sun, according to the law of the stars, by exactly five days in one period of time, when it has completed the pathway you have seen.

Book of Enoch 79:6
Such is the appearance, and likeness, of every light, which Uriel, the great angel who is their leader, showed to me.

Book of Enoch 80:1
And in those days Uriel answered me and said to me, "Behold, I have shown you everything, O Enoch. And I have revealed everything to you, so that you may see this sun, and this moon, and those who lead the stars of heaven, and all those who turn them, their tasks and their times and their rising.

Book of Enoch 80:2
But in the days of the sinners the years will become shorter, and their seed will be late on their land, and on their fields. And all things on the earth will change and will not appear at their proper time. And the rain will be withheld and heaven will retain it.

Book of Enoch 80:3
And in those times the fruits of the earth will be late, and will not grow at their proper time, and the fruits of the trees will be withheld at their proper time.

Book of Enoch 80:4
And the moon will change its customary practice and will not appear at its proper time.

Book of Enoch 80:5
But in those days it will appear in heaven, come on top of a large chariot in the west, and shine with more than normal brightness.

Book of Enoch 80:6
And many heads of the stars, in command, will go astray. And these will change their courses and their activities and will not appear at the times that have been prescribed for them.

Book of Enoch 80:7
And the entire law of the stars will be closed to the sinners, and the thoughts of those who dwell upon the earth will go astray over them, and they will turn from all their ways and will go astray, and will think them gods.

Book of Enoch 80:8
And many evils will overtake them and punishment will come upon them to destroy them all."

Book of Enoch 81:1
And he said to me, "O Enoch, look at the book of the tablets of heaven and read what is written upon them, and note every individual fact."

Book of Enoch 81:2
And I looked at everything that was written and I noted everything. And I read the book and everything that was written in it, all the deeds of men, and all the children of flesh who will be upon the earth, for all the generations of eternity.

Book of Enoch 81:3
And then I immediately blessed the Lord, the Eternal King of glory, in that He has made all the works of the world, and I praised the Lord because of His patience, and I blessed Him on account of the sons of Adam.

Book of Enoch 81:4
And at that time I said, "Blessed is the man who dies righteous and good, concerning whom no book of iniquity has been written, and against whom no guilt has been found."

Book of Enoch 81:5
And these three holy ones brought me and set me on the earth in front of the door of my house, and said to me, "Tell everything to your son Methuselah, and show all your children that no flesh is righteous, before the Lord, for He created them.

Book of Enoch 81:6
For one year we will leave you with your children, until you have regained your strength, so that you may teach your children and write these things down for them, and testify to all your children. And in the second year we will take you from amongst them.

Book of Enoch 81:7
Let your heart be strong, for the good will proclaim righteousness to the good, the righteous will rejoice with the righteous and they will wish each other well.

Book of Enoch 81:8
But the sinner will die with the sinner and the apostate will sink with the apostate.

Book of Enoch 81:9
And those who practice righteousness will die because of the deeds of men, and will be gathered in because of the deeds of the impious."

Book of Enoch 81:10
And in those days they finished speaking to me and I went to my family as I blessed the Lord of ages.

Book of Enoch 82:1
And now, my son Methuselah, all these things I recount to you, and write down for you. I have revealed everything to you, and have given you books about all these things. Keep, my son Methuselah, the books from the hand of your father so that you may pass them on to the generations of eternity.

Book of Enoch 82:2
I have given wisdom to you, and to your children, and to those who will be your children, that they may give it to their children, for all the generations, forever, this wisdom that is beyond their thoughts.

Book of Enoch 82:3
And those who understand it will not sleep, but will incline their ears that they may learn this wisdom, and it will be better for those who eat from it than good food.

Book of Enoch 82:4
Blessed are all the righteous, blessed are all those who walk in the way of righteousness and do not sin like the sinners. In the numbering of all their days in which the sun journeys in heaven, coming in and out, through the gates of heaven, for thirty days. With the leaders of the thousands, of this order of stars, and with the four which are added, and divided between the four seasons of the year, which lead them and appear with them on four days.

Book of Enoch 82:5
Because of them men go wrong, and they do not reckon them in the reckoning of the whole year; for men go wrong in respect of them and do not know them exactly.

Book of Enoch 82:6
For they belong in the reckoning of the year, and are truly recorded forever, one in the first gate, and one in the third, and one in the fourth and one in the sixth. And the year is completed in 364 days.

Book of Enoch 82:7
And the account of it is true, and the recorded reckoning of it is exact, for the lights, and the months, and the feasts, and the years, and the days. Uriel showed me, and inspired me; he to whom the Lord of the whole created world gave commands about the host of heaven for me.

Book of Enoch 82:8
And He has power in heaven, over night and day, to cause light to shine on men; the sun, the moon, and the stars, and all the powers of heaven, *7:54, *16:12, *31:29 which rotate in their orbits. *14:33, *21:33, *35:13

Book of Enoch 82:9
And this is the law of the stars, which set in their places, at their times, and at their feasts, and in their months.

Book of Enoch 82:10
And these are the names of those who lead them, who keep watch, so that they appear at their times, and in their orders, and in their months, and in their periods of rule, and in their positions.

Book of Enoch 82:11
Their four leaders, who divide the four parts of the year, appear first; and after them the twelve leaders of the orders, who divide the months and the years into 364 days, with the heads over thousands, who separate the days. And for the four days, that are added to them, there are the leaders who separate the four parts of the year.

Book of Enoch 82:12
And as for these heads over thousands, one is added between the leader and the led, but their leaders make the separation.

Book of Enoch 82:13
And these are the names of the leaders who separate the four appointed parts of the year, Melkiel, Helemmelek, Meleyal, and Narel.

Book of Enoch 82:14
And the names of those whom they lead, Adnarel, Iyasusael, Iylumiel; these three follow behind the leaders of the orders. And all others follow behind the three leaders of the orders, who follow behind those leaders of positions, who separate the four parts of the year.

Book of Enoch 82:15
In the beginning of the year, Melkiel rises first and rules, who is called the southern sun - and all the days of his period, during which he rules, are ninety-one.

Book of Enoch 82:16
And these are the signs of the days that are to be seen on the earth, in the days of his period of rule; sweat, and heat, and calm. And all the trees bear fruit, and leaves appear on all the trees, and the wheat harvest, and rose flowers. And all the flowers bloom in the field but the trees of winter are withered.

Book of Enoch 82:17
And these are the names of the leaders who are under them, Berkeel, Zelebsael, and another one who is added, a head over a thousand, named Heloyaseph. And the days of the period of rule, of this one, are complete.

Book of Enoch 82:18
The second leader, after him, is Helemmelec, whom they call the shining sun; and all the days of his light are ninety-one.

Book of Enoch 82:19
And these are the signs of the days on earth, heat, and drought. And the trees bring their fruit to ripeness and maturity and make their fruit dry. And the sheep mate and become pregnant. And men gather all the fruits of the earth, and everything that is in the fields, and the vats of wine. And these things occur in the days of his period of rule.

Book of Enoch 82:20
And these are the names, and the orders, and the leaders of these heads over thousands, Gedaeyal, Keel, and Heel. And the name of the head-over-a-thousand, who is added to them, is Asfael. And the days of his period of rule are complete.

Book of Enoch 83:1
And now, my son Methuselah, I will show you all the visions that I saw, recounting them before you.

Book of Enoch 83:2
Two visions I saw, before I took a wife, and neither one was like the other. For the first time, when I learned the art of writing, and for the second time, before I took your mother. I saw a terrible vision and concerning this I made supplication to the Lord.

Book of Enoch 83:3
I had lain down in the house of my grandfather, Malalel, when I saw in a vision how heaven was thrown down, and removed, and it fell upon the earth.

Book of Enoch 83:4
And when it fell upon the earth, I saw how the earth was swallowed up in a great abyss, and mountains were suspended on mountains, and hills sank down upon hills, and tall trees were torn up by their roots, and were thrown down, and sank into the abyss.

Book of Enoch 83:5
And then speech fell into my mouth, and I raised my voice to cry out, and said, "The earth is destroyed!"

Book of Enoch 83:6
And my grandfather, Malalel, roused me, since I lay near him, and said to me, "Why did you cry out so, my son, and why do you moan so?"

Book of Enoch 83:7
And I recounted to him the whole vision, which I had seen, and he said to me, "A terrible thing you have seen, my son! Your dream vision concerns the secrets of all the sin of the earth; it is about to sink into the abyss and be utterly destroyed.

Book of Enoch 83:8
And now, my son, rise and make supplication to the Lord of glory, for you are faithful, that a remnant may be left on the earth and that He may not wipe out the whole earth.

Book of Enoch 83:9
My son, from heaven all this will come upon the earth, and upon the earth there will be great destruction."

Book of Enoch 83:10
And then I rose and prayed, and made supplication, and wrote my prayer down for the generations of eternity, and I will show everything to you my son Methuselah. And, when I went out below and saw the heaven, and the sun rising in the east, and the moon setting in the west, and some stars, and the whole earth, and everything as He knew it since the beginning. Then I blessed the Lord of Judgement and ascribed majesty to Him, for He makes the sun come out from the windows of the east, so that it ascends and rises on the face of heaven, and follows the path which has been shown to it.

Book of Enoch 84:1
And I raised my hands in righteousness and I blessed the Holy and Great One. And I spoke with the breath of my mouth, and with the tongue of flesh, which God has made for men born of flesh so that they might speak with it; and He has given them breath, and a tongue, and a mouth, so that they might speak with them.

Book of Enoch 84:2
"Blessed are You, O Lord King, and great and powerful in Your majesty, Lord of the whole creation of heaven, King of kings, and God of the whole world! And Your kingly authority, and Your sovereignty and Your majesty will last forever, and forever and ever, and Your power, for all generations. And all the heavens are Your Throne, forever, and the whole earth Your footstool *Isaiah 66:1, *Matthew 5:34 - 35 forever, and ever and ever.

Book of Enoch 84:3
For You made, and You rule, everything, and nothing is too hard for You, and no wisdom escapes You; it does not turn away from Your Throne nor from Your presence. And You know, and see, and hear, everything, and nothing is hidden from You, for You see everything.

Book of Enoch 84:4
And now the angels of Your heaven are doing wrong and Your anger rests upon the flesh of men until the Day of the Great Judgement.

Book of Enoch 84:5
And now, O God, Lord, and Great King, I entreat and ask that You will fulfill my prayer to leave me a posterity on earth and not to wipe out all the flesh of men and make the earth empty so that there is destruction forever.

Book of Enoch 84:6
And now, my Lord, wipe out from the earth the flesh that has provoked Your anger, but the flesh of righteousness and uprightness establish as a seed bearing plant forever. And do not hide Your Face from the prayer of Your servant, O Lord."

Book of Enoch 85:1
And after this I saw another dream, and I will show it all to you, my son.

Book of Enoch 85:2
And Enoch raised his voice and said to his son Methuselah, "To you I speak, my son. Hear my words, and incline your ear to the dream vision of your father.

Book of Enoch 85:3
Before I took your mother, Edna, I saw a vision on my bed, and behold, a bull came out of the earth, *Genesis 2:7 and that bull was white. And, after it, a heifer came out, *Genesis 2:22 and with the heifer came two bullocks, and one of them was black and the other red*Genesis 4:1 - 2

Book of Enoch 85:4
And that black bullock struckthe red one, *Genesis 4:8, *5:27 - 30 and pursued it over the earth, and from then on I could not see that red bullock.

Book of Enoch 85:5But that black bullock grew, and a heifer went with it; and I saw that many bulls came out from it, which were like it, and followed behind it.

Book of Enoch 85:6
And that cow, that first one, came from the presence of that first bull, seeking that red bullock, but did not find it. And then it moaned bitterly and continued to seek it.

Book of Enoch 85:7
And I looked until that first bull came to it, and calmed it, and from that time it did not cry out.

Book of Enoch 85:8
And after this, she bore another white bull, and after this she bore many black bulls and cows.

Book of Enoch 85:9
And I saw, in my sleep, that white bull, how it likewise grew and became a large white bull. And from it came many white bulls, and they were like it. And they began to beget many white bulls that were like them - one following another.

Book of Enoch 86:1
And again, I looked with my eyes as I was sleeping, and I saw heaven above, and behold, a star fell from heaven, and it arose and ate and pastured amongst those bulls.

Book of Enoch 86:2
And, after this, I saw the large and the black bulls, and behold, all of them changed their pens, and their pastures, and their heifers. And they began to moan, one after another.

Book of Enoch 86:3
And, again, I saw in the vision and looked up at heaven, and behold, I saw many stars, how they came down, and were thrown down from heaven to that first star, and fell amongst those heifers and bulls. They were with them pasturing amongst them.

Book of Enoch 86:4
And I looked at them and saw, and behold, all of them let out their private parts, like horses, and began to mount the cows of the bulls. And they all became pregnant and bore elephants, camels, and asses.

Book of Enoch 86:5
And all the bulls were afraid of them, and were terrified in front of them. And they began to bite with their teeth, and to devour, and to gore with their horns.

Book of Enoch 86:6
And so they began to devour those bulls, and behold, all the sons of the earth began to tremble and shake before them and to flee.

Book of Enoch 87:1
And again I saw them, how they began to gore one another, and to devour one another, and the earth began to cry out.

Book of Enoch 87:2
And I raised my eyes again to heaven, and saw in the vision, and behold, there came from heaven beings that were like white men. And four came from that place, and three others with them.

Book of Enoch 87:3
And those three, who came out last, took hold of me by my hand and raised me from the generations of the earth, and lifted me up onto a high place, *19:56 - 57 and showed me a tower high above the earth, and all the hills were lower.

Book of Enoch 87:4
And one said to me, "Remain here until you have seen everything which is coming upon these elephants, and camels, and asses, and upon the stars, and upon all the bulls."

Book of Enoch 88:1
And I saw one of those four who had come out first, how he took hold of that first star, which had fallen from heaven, and bound it by its hands and feet, and threw it into an abyss. And that abyss was narrow, and deep, and horrible, and dark.

Book of Enoch 88:2
And one of them drew his sword, and gave it to those elephants, camels, and asses; and they began to strike one another, and the whole earth shook because of them.

Book of Enoch 88:3
And as I looked in the vision, behold, one of those four who had come out cast a line from heaven and gathered and took all the large stars; those whose private parts were like the private parts of horses, and bound them all by their hands and their feet, and threw them into a chasm of the earth.

Book of Enoch 89:1
And one of those four, went to a white bull, and taught him a mystery, trembling as he was. He was born a bull, but became a man, and built for himself a large vessel, and dwelt on it, and three bulls went with him in that vessel, and they were covered over.

Book of Enoch 89:2
And, again, I raised my eyes to heaven and saw a high roof with seven water channels on it, and those channels discharged much water into an enclosure. *54:11

Book of Enoch 89:3
And I looked again, and behold, springs opened on the floor of that large enclosure, and water began to bubble up, and to rise above the floor. *54:12 And I looked at that enclosure until its whole floor was covered by water.

Book of Enoch 89:4
And water, darkness, and mist increased on it, and I looked at the height of that water, and that water had risen above that enclosure and was pouring out over the enclosure, and it remained on the earth.

Book of Enoch 89:5
And all the bulls of that enclosure were gathered together, until I saw how they sank, and were swallowed up, and destroyed, in that water.

Book of Enoch 89:6
And that vessel floated on the water, but all the bulls, elephants, camels, and asses sank to the bottom, together with all the animals, so that I could not see them. And they were unable to get out, but were destroyed, and sank into the depths.

Book of Enoch 89:7
And, again, I looked at that vision until those water channels were removed from that high roof, and the chasms of the earth were made level, and other abysses were opened.

Book of Enoch 89:8
And the water began to run down into them, until the earth became visible, and that vessel settled on the earth *11:44 and the darkness departed, and light appeared.

Book of Enoch 89:9
And that white bull, who became a man, went out from that vessel, and the three bulls with him. And one of the three bulls was white, like that bull, and one of them was red as blood, and one was black. And that white bull passed away from them.

Book of Enoch 89:10
And they began to beget wild animals and birds, so that there arose from them every kind of species, lions, tigers, wolves, dogs, hyenas, wildboars, foxes, badgers, pigs, falcons, vultures, kites, eagles, and ravens. But amongst them was born a white bull.

Book of Enoch 89:11
And they began to bite one another but that white bull, which was born amongst them, begata wild ass and a white bull with it, and the wild asses increased.

Book of Enoch 89:12But that bull, which was bornfrom it, begat a black wild boar and a white sheep, and that wild-boar begat many boars and that sheep begat twelve sheep*Genesis 35:22

Book of Enoch 89:13And when those twelve sheep had grown, they handedone of their number over to the asses, and those in turn, handed that sheep over to the wolves; and that sheep grew up amongst the wolves. *Genesis 37:28, *12:19 - 21

Book of Enoch 89:14
And the Lord brought the eleven sheep to dwellwith it, and to pasture with it amongst the wolves, and they increased and became many flocks of sheep.

Book of Enoch 89:15
And the wolves began to make them afraid, and they oppressed them until they made away with their young, and then they threw their young into a river with much water; *Exodus 1:22but those sheep began to cry out because of their young, and to complain to their Lord.

Book of Enoch 89:16But a sheep, which had been saved from the wolves, fled and escaped to the wild asses. And I saw the sheep moaning and crying out, and petitioning the Lord with all their power, until that Lord of the sheep came down at the call of the sheep, from a high room, and came to them, and looked at them.

Book of Enoch 89:17
And He called that sheep, which had fled from the wolves, and spoke to it about the wolves, that it should warn them that they should not touch the sheep.

Book of Enoch 89:18And the sheep went to the wolves, in accordance with the word of the Lord, and another sheep met that sheep and went with it. And the two of them together, entered the assembly of those wolves, spoke to them, and warned them that from then on, they should not touch those sheep.

Book of Enoch 89:19
And after this, I saw the wolves, how they acted even more harshly towards the sheep, with all their power, and the sheep called out.

Book of Enoch 89:20
And their Lord came to the sheep and began to beat those wolves; and the wolves began to moan, but the sheep became silent and from then on they did not cry out.

Book of Enoch 89:21
And I looked at the sheep until they escaped from the wolves; but the eyes of the wolves were blinded, and those wolves went out in pursuit of the sheep with all their forces.

Book of Enoch 89:22
And the Lord of the sheep went with them, as He led them, and all His sheep followed Him; and His Face was glorious, and His appearance terrible and magnificent.

Book of Enoch 89:23
But the wolves began to pursue those sheep until they met them by a stretch of water.

Book of Enoch 89:24And that stretch of water was divided, and the water stood on one side, and on the other, before them. *Exodus 14:16, *20:77, *26:63 And their Lord as He led them, stood between them and the wolves.

Book of Enoch 89:25And while those wolves had not yet seen the sheep, they went into the middle of that stretch of water; but the wolves pursuedthe sheep, and those wolves ran after them into that stretch of water.

Book of Enoch 89:26
But when they saw the Lord of the sheep, they turned to flee in front of Him; but that stretch of water flowed together again, and suddenly resumed its natural form, and the water swelled up, and rose until it covered those wolves.

Book of Enoch 89:27
And I looked until all the wolves that had pursuedthose sheep were destroyed and drowned. *Exodus 14:28, *2:50, *20:78

Book of Enoch 89:28
But the sheep escaped that water, and went to a desert, where there was neither water, nor grass. And they began to open their eyes and see, and I saw the Lord of the sheep pasturing them, and giving them water and grass, and that sheep going and leading them.

Book of Enoch 89:29And that sheep went up to the summit of a high rock and the Lord of the sheep sent it to them.

Book of Enoch 89:30
And after this, I saw the Lord of the sheep standing before them, and His appearance was terrible and majestic, and all those sheep saw Him and were afraid of Him.

Book of Enoch 89:31
And all of them were afraid and trembled before Him; and they cried out to that sheep, with those who were in their midst, "We cannot stand before our Lord nor look at Him."

Book of Enoch 89:32And that sheep, which led them, again went up to the summit of that rock; and the sheep began to be blinded, and go astray from the path which had been shown to them, but that sheep did not know. *Exodus 32:7 - 8

Book of Enoch 89:33
And the Lord of the sheep was extremely angry with them, and that sheep knew, and went down from the summit of the rock, and came to the sheep, and found the majority of them, with their eyes blinded, and going astray from His path.

Book of Enoch 89:34
And when they saw it they were afraid and trembled before it and wished that they could return to their enclosure. And that sheep took some other sheep with it, and went to those sheep that had gone astray, and then began to kill them; *Exodus 32:27 - 28 and the sheep were afraid of it. And that sheep brought back those sheep that had gone astray, and they returned to their enclosures.

Book of Enoch 89:36
And I looked there at the vision, until that sheep became a man, and built a house for the Lord of the sheep, and made all the sheep stand in that house.

Book of Enoch 89:37
And I looked until that sheep, which had met that sheep that led the sheep, fell asleep. And I looked until all the large sheep were destroyed and small ones arose in their place, and they came to a pasture, and drew near a river of water.

Book of Enoch 89:38
And that sheep that led them, which had become a man, separated from them and fell asleep, and all the sheep sought it, and cried out very bitterly over it.

Book of Enoch 89:39
And I looked until they left off crying for that sheep, and crossed that river of water. And there arose all the sheep that led them, in place of those which had fallen asleep; and they led.

Book of Enoch 89:40
And I looked until the sheep came to a good place and a pleasant and glorious land, and I looked until those sheep were satisfied. And that house was in the middle of them in that green and pleasant land.

Book of Enoch 89:41
And sometimes their eyes were opened, and sometimes blinded, until another sheep rose up, led them, and brought them all back. And their eyes were opened.

Book of Enoch 89:42
And the dogs, and the foxes, and the wild boars, began to devour those sheep until the Lord of the sheep raised up a ram from among them, which led them.

Book of Enoch 89:43And that ram began to butt those dogs, foxes, and wild boars, on one side and on the other until it had destroyed them all.

Book of Enoch 89:44
And the eyes of that sheep were opened, and it saw that ram in the middle of the sheep, how it renounced its glory, and began to butt those sheep, and how it trampled on them and behaved unbecomingly.

Book of Enoch 89:45
And the Lord of the sheep sent the sheep to another sheep and raised it up to be a ram and to lead the sheep in place of that sheep which had renounced its glory.

Book of Enoch 89:46
And it went to it, and spoke with it alone, and raised up that ram, and made it the prince and leader of the sheep. And, during all this, those dogs oppressed the sheep.

Book of Enoch 89:47And the first ram pursuedthat second ram and that second ram rose and fled before it. And I looked until those dogs made the first ram fall.

Book of Enoch 89:48And that second ram rose up and led the small sheep, and that ram begat many sheep, and fell asleep. And a small sheep became a ram, in place of it, and became the prince and leader of those sheep.

Book of Enoch 89:49
And those sheep grew and increased; but all the dogs, and foxes, and wild boars, were afraid and fled from it. And that ram butted and killed all the animals, and those animals did not again prevail amongst the sheep, and did not seize anything further from them.

Book of Enoch 89:50
And that house became large and broad, and for those sheep a high tower was built on that house for the Lord of the sheep. And that house was low but the tower was raised up and high. And the Lord of the sheep stood on that tower and they spread a full table before Him.

Book of Enoch 89:51
And I saw those sheep again, how they went astray, and walked in many ways, and left that house of theirs; and the Lord of the sheep called some of the sheep, and sent them to the sheep, but the sheep began to kill them.

Book of Enoch 89:52But one of them was saved, and was not killed, and it sprang away and cried out against the sheep. And they wished to kill it but the Lord of the sheep saved it from the hands of the sheep, *4:157 brought it up*4:158 to me, and made it stay.

Book of Enoch 89:53
And He sent many other sheep to those sheep, to testify to them and to lament over them.

Book of Enoch 89:54
And after this, I saw how when they left the house of the Lord of the sheep, and His tower, they went astray in everything, and their eyes were blinded. And I saw how the Lord of the sheep worked much slaughter among them, in their pastures, until those sheep invited that slaughter, and betrayed His place.

Book of Enoch 89:55
And He gave them into the hands of the lions, and the tigers, and the wolves, and the hyenas, and into the hands of the foxes, and to all the animals. And those wild animals began to tear those sheep in pieces.

Book of Enoch 89:56
And I saw how He left that house of theirs, and their tower, and gave them all into the hands of the lions so that they might tear them in pieces and devour them, and into the hands of all the animals.

Book of Enoch 89:57
And I began to cry out with all my power, to call the Lord of the sheep, and to represent to Him concerning the sheep; that all the wild animals were devouring them.

Book of Enoch 89:58
But He remained still, although He saw, and He rejoiced that they were devoured, swallowed up and carried off. And He gave them into the hands of all the animals for food.

Book of Enoch 89:59
And He called seventy shepherds, and cast off those sheep, so that they might pasture them. And He said to the shepherds and to their companions, "Each one of you, from now on, is to pasture the sheep and do whatever I command you.

Book of Enoch 89:60
And I will hand them over to you, duly numbered, and I will tell you which of them are to be destroyed, and destroy them." And He handed those sheep over to them.

Book of Enoch 89:61
And He called another, and said to him, "Observe and see everything that these shepherds do against these sheep for they will destroy from among them more than I have commanded them.

Book of Enoch 89:62
And write down all the excess and destruction, which is worked by the shepherds; how many they destroy at My command and how many they destroy of their own volition. Write down against each shepherd, individually, all that he destroys.

Book of Enoch 89:63
And read out in front of Me exactly how many they destroy of their own volition and how many are handed over for destruction so that this may be a testimony for Me against them. So that I may know all the deeds of the shepherds in order to hand them over for judgement. And I will see what they do, whether they abide by My command with which I have commanded them, or not.

Book of Enoch 89:64
But they must not know this, and you must not show this to them, but only write down against each individual in his time all that the shepherds destroy, and bring it all up to Me."

Book of Enoch 89:65
And I looked until those shepherds pastured at their times, and they began to kill and destroy more than they were commanded, and they gave those sheep into the hands of the lions.

Book of Enoch 89:66
And the lions and the tigers devoured and swallowed up the majority of those sheep, and the wild boars devoured with them; and they burnt down that tower and demolished that house. *Barnabas 16:5, *17:7

Book of Enoch 89:67
And I was extremely sad about that tower because that house of the sheep had been demolished; and after that I was unable to see whether those sheep went into that house.

Book of Enoch 89:68
And the shepherds and their companions handed those sheep over to all the animals so that they might devour them. Each one of them, at his time, received an exact number, and for each of them, one after the other, there was written in a book how many of them were destroyed.

Book of Enoch 89:69
And each one killed and destroyed more than was prescribed and I began to weep and moan very much because of those sheep.

Book of Enoch 89:70
And likewise, in the vision, I saw that one who wrote, how each day, he wrote down each one that was destroyed by those shepherds. And he brought up, and presented, the whole book to the Lord of the sheep, everything they had done and all that each one of them had made away with, and all that they had handed to destruction.

Book of Enoch 89:71
And the book was read out in front of the Lord of the sheep, and He took the book in His hand, read it, sealed it, and put it down.

Book of Enoch 89:72
And after this I saw how the shepherds pastured for twelve hours, and behold three of those sheep returned, and arrived, and came and began to build up all that had fallen down from that house; but the wild boars hindered them so that they could not.

Book of Enoch 89:73
And they again began to build, as before, and they raised up that tower, and it was called the high tower. And they began again to place a table before the tower but all the bread on it was unclean and was not pure.

Book of Enoch 89:74
And, besides all this, the eyes of these sheep were blinded so that they could not see, and their shepherds likewise. And they handed yet more of them over to destruction, and they trampled on the sheep with their feet, and devoured them.

Book of Enoch 89:75
But the Lord of the sheep remained still, until all the sheep were scattered abroad, and had mixed with them, and they did not save them from the hands of the animals.

Book of Enoch 89:76
And that one who wrote the book brought it up, showed it, and read it out in the dwelling of the Lord of the sheep. And he entreated Him on behalf of them, and petitioned Him, as he showed Him all the deeds of their shepherds and testified in front of Him against all the shepherds.

Book of Enoch 89:77
And he took the book, put it down by Him, and went out.

Book of Enoch 90:1
And I looked until the time that thirty-five shepherds had pastured the sheep the same way, and, each individually; they all completed their time like the first ones. And others received them into their hands to pasture them, at their time, each shepherd at his own time.

Book of Enoch 90:2
And after this, I saw in the vision, all the birds of the heaven coming, the eagles, the vultures, and the kites, and the ravens. But the eagles led all the birds, and they began to devour those sheep, to peck out their eyes, and to devour their flesh.

Book of Enoch 90:3
And the sheep cried out because the birds devoured their flesh. And I cried out and lamented in my sleep because of that shepherd who pastured the sheep.

Book of Enoch 90:4
And I looked until those sheep were devoured by those dogs, and by the eagles, and by the kites, and they left them neither flesh nor skin, nor sinew, until only their bones remained. And their bones fell upon the ground and the sheep became few.

Book of Enoch 90:5
And I looked until the time that twenty three shepherds had pastured, and they completed, each in his time, fifty eight times.

Book of Enoch 90:6
And small lambs were born from those white sheep, and they began to open their eyes, to see, and to cry to the sheep.

Book of Enoch 90:7
But the sheep did not cry to them, and did not listen to what they said to them, but were extremely deaf, and their eyes were extremely and excessively blinded.

Book of Enoch 90:8
And I saw in the vision, how the ravens flew upon those lambs, and took one of those lambs, and dashed the sheep in pieces and devoured them.

Book of Enoch 90:9
And I looked until horns came up on those lambs but the ravens cast their horns down. And I looked until a big horn grew on one of those sheep, and their eyes were opened.

Book of Enoch 90:10
And it looked at them and their eyes were opened. And it cried to the sheep, and the rams saw it, and they all ran to it.

Book of Enoch 90:11
And, besides all this, those eagles, and vultures, and ravens, and kites, were still continually tearing the sheep in pieces, and flying upon them and devouring them. And the sheep were silent but the rams lamented and cried out.

Book of Enoch 90:12
And those ravens battled and fought with it, and wished to make away with its horn, but they did not prevail against it.

Book of Enoch 90:13
And I looked at them until the shepherds and the eagles, and those vultures, and kites, came and cried to the ravens that they should dash the horn of that ram in pieces. And they fought and battled with it, and it fought with them and cried out so that its help might come to it.

Book of Enoch 90:14
And I looked until that man, who wrote down the names of the shepherds and brought them up before the Lord of the sheep, came, and He helped that ram and showed it everything; its help was coming down.

Book of Enoch 90:15
And I looked until that Lord of the sheep came to them in anger, all those who saw Him fled, and they all fell into the shadow in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 90:16
All the eagles and vultures and ravens and kites, gathered together and brought with them all the wild sheep, and they all came together and helped one another in order to dash that horn of the ram in pieces.

Book of Enoch 90:17
And I looked at that man, who wrote the book at the command of the Lord, until he opened that book of the destruction that those last twelve shepherds had worked. And he showed, in front of the Lord of the sheep, that they had destroyed even more than those before them had.

Book of Enoch 90:18
And I looked until the Lord of the sheep came to them and took the staff of His anger and struck the earth. And the earth was split. And all the animals, and the birds of the heaven, fell from those sheep and sank in the earth; and it closed over them.

Book of Enoch 90:19
And I looked until a big sword was given to the sheep. And the sheep went out against all the wild animals to kill them. And all the animals, and birds of the heaven, fled before them.

Book of Enoch 90:20
And I looked until a Throne was set up in a pleasant land and the Lord of the sheep sat on it. And they took all the sealed books and opened the books in front of the Lord of the sheep.

Book of Enoch 90:21
And the Lord called those men, the seven first white ones, and commanded them to bring in front of Him the first star, which went before those stars whose private parts were like horses, and they brought them all in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 90:22
And He said to that man who wrote in front of Him, who was one of the seven white ones, He said to him, "Take those seventy shepherds, to whom I handed over the sheep, and who, on their own authority, took and killed more than I commanded them."

Book of Enoch 90:23
And behold, I saw them all bound, and they all stood in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 90:24
And the Judgement was held, first on the stars, and they were judged and found guilty, and they went to the place of damnation, and were thrown into a deep place full of fire burning, and full of pillars of fire.

Book of Enoch 90:25
And those seventy shepherds were judged, and found guilty, and they also were thrown into that abyss of fire.

Book of Enoch 90:26
And I saw at that time, how a similar abyss was opened in the middle of the earth which was full of fire, and they brought those blind sheep and they were all judged, and found guilty, and thrown into that abyss of fire and they burned. And that abyss was on the south of that house.

Book of Enoch 90:27
And I saw those sheep burning and their bones were burning.

Book of Enoch 90:28
And I stood up to look until He folded up that old house, and they removed all the pillars, and all the beams and ornaments of that house were folded up with it. And they removed it and put it in a place in the south of the land.

Book of Enoch 90:29
And I looked until the Lord of the sheep brought a new house, larger and higher than the first one, and He set it up on the site of the first one that had been folded up. And all its pillars were new, and its ornaments were new and larger than those of the first one - the old one that had been removed. And the Lord of the sheep was in the middle of it.

Book of Enoch 90:30
And I saw all the sheep that were left, and all the animals of the earth, and all the birds of the heaven, falling down and worshipping those sheep, and entreating them and obeying them in every command.

Book of Enoch 90:31
And after this, those three who were dressed in white and had taken hold of my hand, the ones who had brought me up at first. They, with the hand of that ram also holding me, took me up, and put me down in the middle of those sheep before the Judgement was held.

Book of Enoch 90:32
And those sheep were all white and their wool thick and pure.

Book of Enoch 90:33
And all those which had been destroyed and scattered, and all the wild animals, and all the birds of the heaven, gathered together in that house, and the Lord of the sheep rejoiced very much because they were all good, and had returned to His house.

Book of Enoch 90:34
And I looked until they had laid down that sword, which had been given to the sheep, and they brought it back into His house, and it was sealed in front of the Lord. And all the sheep were enclosed in that house but it did not hold them.

Book of Enoch 90:35
And the eyes of all of them were opened, and they saw well, and there was not one among them that did not see.

Book of Enoch 90:36
And I saw that that house was large, broad, and exceptionally full.

Book of Enoch 90:37
And I saw how a white bull was born, and its horns were big, and all the wild animals, and all the birds of the heaven, were afraid of it, and entreated it continually.

Book of Enoch 90:38
And I looked until all their species were transformed and they all became white bulls. And the first among them was a wild-ox. And that wild-ox was a large animal and had big black horns on its head. And the Lord of the sheep rejoiced over them, and over all the bulls.

Book of Enoch 90:39
And I was asleep in the middle of them and I woke up and saw everything.

Book of Enoch 90:40
And this is the vision which I saw while I was asleep, and I woke up, blessed the Lord of righteousness, and ascribed glory to Him.

Book of Enoch 90:41
But after this I wept bitterly and my tears did not stop until I could not endure it. When I looked, they ran down, because of what I saw, for everything will come to pass and be fulfilled, and all the deeds of men, in their order, were shown to me.

Book of Enoch 90:42
That night I remembered my first dream, and because of it I wept, and was disturbed, because I had seen that vision.

Book of Enoch 91:1
And now my son Methuselah, call to me all your brothers, and gather to me all the children of your mother. For a voice calls me, and a spirit has been poured over me, so that I may show you everything that will come upon you forever.

Book of Enoch 91:2
And after this Methuselah went and called his brothers to him and gathered his relations.

Book of Enoch 91:3
And he spoke about righteousness to all his sons, and said, "Hear, my children, all the words of your father, and listen properly to the voice of my mouth, for I will testify and speak to you - my beloved. Love uprightness and walk in it!

Book of Enoch 91:4
And do not draw near to uprightness with a double heart, and do not associate with those of a double heart, but walk in righteousness my children and it will lead you in good paths, and righteousness will be your companion.

Book of Enoch 91:5
For I know that the state of wrongdoing will continue on earth, and a great punishment will be carried out on the earth, and an end will be made of all iniquity. And it will be cut off at its roots and its whole edifice will pass away.

Book of Enoch 91:6
And iniquity will again be complete on the earth, and all the deeds of iniquity, and the deeds of wrong, and of wickedness, will prevail for a second time.

Book of Enoch 91:7
And when iniquity, and sin, and blasphemy, and wrong, and all kinds of evil deeds increase, and when apostasy, wickedness, and uncleanness increase, a great punishment will come from heaven upon all these. And the Holy Lord will come in anger, and in wrath, to execute judgement on the earth.

Book of Enoch 91:8
In those days wrongdoing will be cut off at its roots, and the roots of iniquity, together with deceit, will be destroyed from under heaven.

Book of Enoch 91:9
And all the idols of the nations will be given up, their towers will be burnt in fire, and they will remove them from the whole earth. And they will be thrown down into the Judgement of Fire, and will be destroyed in anger, and in the severe judgement that is forever.

Book of Enoch 91:10
And the righteous will rise from sleep, and wisdom will rise, and will be given to them.

Book of Enoch 91:11
And after this the roots of iniquity will be cut off and the sword will destroy the sinners. The blasphemers will be cut off; in every place blasphemy will be destroyed by the sword.

Book of Enoch 91:12
And after this there will be another week; the eighth, that of righteousness, and a sword will be given to it so that the righteous judgement may be executed on those who do wrong, and the sinners will be handed over into the hands of the righteous.

Book of Enoch 91:13
And, at its end, they will acquire houses because of their righteousness, and a house will be built for the Great King in glory, forever.

Book of Enoch 91:14
And after this, in the ninth week, the righteous judgement will be revealed to the whole world. And all the deeds of the impious will vanish from the whole earth. And the world will be written down for destruction and all men will look to the path of uprightness.

Book of Enoch 91:15
And, after this, in the tenth week, in the seventh part, there will be an Eternal Judgement that will be executed on the Watchers and the great eternal heaven that will spring from the midst of the angels.

Book of Enoch 91:16
And the first heaven will vanish and pass away and a new heaven will appear, *Revelation 21:1 and all the powers of heaven will shine forever, with sevenfold light.

Book of Enoch 91:17
And after this, there will be many weeks without number, forever, in goodness and in righteousness. And from then on sin will never again be mentioned. *56:25

Book of Enoch 91:18
And now I tell you, my children, and show you the paths of righteousness, and the paths of wrongdoing. And I will show you again so that you may know what is to come.

Book of Enoch 91:19
And now listen, my children, walk in the paths of righteousness and do not walk in the paths of wrongdoing, for all those who walk in the path of iniquity will be destroyed forever."

Book of Enoch 92:1
Written by Enoch, the scribe, this complete wisdom and teaching, praised by all men and a judge of the whole earth. For all my sons who dwell on earth. And for the last generations who will practice justice and peace.

Book of Enoch 92:2
Let not your spirit be saddened by the times for the Holy and Great One has appointed days for all things.

Book of Enoch 92:3
And the righteous man will rise from sleep, will rise and will walk in the path of righteousness, and all his paths, and his journeys, will be in eternal goodness and mercy.

Book of Enoch 92:4
He will show mercy to the righteous man and to him give eternal uprightness, and to him give power. And he will live in goodness, and righteousness, and will walk in eternal light.

Book of Enoch 92:5
And sin will be destroyed in darkness, forever, and from that day will never again be seen.

Book of Enoch 93:1
And, after this, Enoch began to speak from the books,

Book of Enoch 93:2
And Enoch said, "Concerning the sons of righteousness, and concerning the chosen of the world, and concerning the plant of righteousness and uprightness, I will speak these things to you, and make them known to you, my children. I, Enoch, according to that which appeared to me in the heavenly vision, and that which I know from the words of the holy angels, and understanding from the tablets of heaven."

Book of Enoch 93:3
And Enoch then began to speak from the books, and said, "I was born the seventh, in the first week, while justice and righteousness still lasted.

Book of Enoch 93:4
And, after me, in the second week, great injustice will arise, and deceit will have sprung up. And in it there will be the first end, and in it, a man will be saved. And after it has ended, iniquity will grow, and He will make a law for the sinners.

Book of Enoch 93:5
And after this in the third week, at its end, a man will be chosen as the plant of righteous judgement, and after him will come the plant of righteousness, forever.

Book of Enoch 93:6
And after this, in the fourth week, at its end, visions of the righteous and holy will be seen, and a law for all generations, and an enclosure will be made for them.

Book of Enoch 93:7
And after this, in the fifth week, at its end, a House of glory and sovereignty will be built forever.

Book of Enoch 93:8
And after this, in the sixth week, all those who live in it will be blinded. And the hearts of them all, lacking wisdom, will sink into impiety. And in it, a man will ascend, and at its end the House of Sovereignty will be burnt with fire. And in it the whole race of the chosen root will be scattered.

Book of Enoch 93:9
And after this, in the seventh week, an apostate generation will arise. And many will be its deeds - but all its deeds will be apostasy.

Book of Enoch 93:10
And at its end, the chosen righteous, from the eternal plant of righteousness, will be chosen, to whom will be given sevenfold teaching, concerning His whole creation.

Book of Enoch 93:11
For is there any man who can hear the voice of the Holy One and not be disturbed? And who is there who can think His thoughts? And who is there who can look at all the works of heaven?

Book of Enoch 93:12
And how should there be anyone who could understand the works of heaven, and see a soul, or a spirit, and tell about it, or ascend and see all their ends and comprehend them, or make anything like them?

Book of Enoch 93:13
And is there any man who could know the length and breadth of the earth? And to whom has all its measurements been shown?

Book of Enoch 93:14
Or is there any man who could know the length of heaven, and what is its height, and on what is it fixed, and how large is the number of stars, and where do all the lights rest?

Book of Enoch 94:1
And now I say to you, my children, love righteousness and walk in it; for the paths of righteousness are worthy of acceptance, but the paths of iniquity will quickly be destroyed and vanish.

Book of Enoch 94:2
And to certain men, from a future generation, the paths of wrongdoing and of death will be revealed; and they will keep away from them and will not follow them.

Book of Enoch 94:3
And now I say to you, the righteous, do not walk in the wicked path, or in wrongdoing, or in the paths of death, and do not draw near to them or you may be destroyed.

Book of Enoch 94:4
But seek, and choose for yourself, righteousness, and a life that is pleasing and walk in the paths of peace so that you may live and prosper.

Book of Enoch 94:5
And hold my words firmly in the thoughts of your heart, and do not let them be erased from your heart, for I know that sinners will tempt men to debase wisdom, and no place will be found for it, and temptation will in no way decrease.

Book of Enoch 94:6
Woe to those who build iniquity and found deceit for they will quickly be thrown down and will not have peace.

Book of Enoch 94:7
Woe to those who build their houses with sin, for from their whole foundation they will be thrown down, and by the sword they shall fall, and those who acquire gold and silver will quickly be destroyed in the Judgement.

Book of Enoch 94:8
Woe to you, you rich, for you have trusted in your riches, but from your riches you will depart for you did not remember the Most High in the days of your riches.

Book of Enoch 94:9
You have committed blasphemy, and iniquity, and are ready for the days of the outpouring of blood, and for the Day of Darkness, and for the Day of the Great Judgement.

Book of Enoch 94:10
Thus I say, and make known to you, that He who created you will throw you down, and over your fall there will be no mercy, but your Creator will rejoice at your destruction.

Book of Enoch 94:11
And your righteousness in those days will be a reproach to the sinners and to the impious.

Book of Enoch 95:1
Would that my eyes were a rain-cloud, so that I might weep over you, and pour out my tears like rain, so that I might have rest from the sorrow of my heart!

Book of Enoch 95:2
Who permitted you to practice hatred and wickedness? May judgement come upon you, the sinners!

Book of Enoch 95:3
Do not be afraid of the sinners, you righteous, for the Lord will again deliver them into your hands, so that you may execute judgement on them as you desire.

Book of Enoch 95:4
Woe to you who pronounce anathema that you cannot remove.. Healing will be far from you because of your sin.

Book of Enoch 95:5
Woe to you who repay your neighbors with evil for you will be repaid according to your deeds.

Book of Enoch 95:6
Woe to you, you lying witnesses, and to those who weigh out iniquity, for you will quickly be destroyed.

Book of Enoch 95:7
Woe to you, you sinners, because you persecute the righteous, for you yourselves will be handed over and persecuted, you men of iniquity, and their yoke will be heavy on you.

Book of Enoch 96:1
Be hopeful, you righteous, for the sinners will quickly be destroyed before you, and you will have power over them, as you desire.

Book of Enoch 96:2
And in the day of the distress of the sinners, your young will rise up, like eagles, and your nest will be higher than that of vultures. And you will go up, and like badgers, enter the crevices of the earth, and the clefts of the rock, forever, before the lawless, but they will groan and weep because of you, like satyrs.

Book of Enoch 96:3
And do not be afraid you who have suffered, for you will receive healing, and a bright light will shine upon you, and the voice of rest you will hear from heaven.

Book of Enoch 96:4
Woe to you, you sinners, for your riches make you appear righteous, but your hearts prove you to be sinners. And this word will be a testimony against you as a reminder of your evil deeds.

Book of Enoch 96:5
Woe to you who devour the finest of the wheat, and drink the best of the water, and trample upon the humble through your power.

Book of Enoch 96:6
Woe to you who drink water all the time, for you will quickly be repaid, and will become exhausted and dry for you have left the spring of life.

Book of Enoch 96:7
Woe to you who commit iniquity, and deceit, and blasphemy, it will be a reminder of evil against you.

Book of Enoch 96:8
Woe to you, you powerful, who through power oppress the righteous; for the day of your destruction will come. In those days many good days will come for the righteous in the Day of your Judgement.

Book of Enoch 97:1
Believe, you righteous, that the sinners will become an object of shame and will be destroyed on the Day of Judgement.

Book of Enoch 97:2
Be it known to you, sinners, that the Most High remembers your destruction and that the angels rejoice over your destruction.

Book of Enoch 97:3
What will you do, you sinners, and where will you flee on that Day of Judgement when you hear the sound of prayer of the righteous?

Book of Enoch 97:4
But you will not be like them against whom this word will be a testimony, "You have been associated with the sinners."

Book of Enoch 97:5
And in those days, the prayer of the holy will be in front of the Lord, and for you will come the days of your judgement.

Book of Enoch 97:6
And the words of your iniquity will be read out before the great and Holy One, and your faces will blush with shame, and every deed which is founded upon iniquity will be rejected.

Book of Enoch 97:7
Woe to you, you sinners, who are in the middle of the sea, or on dry ground, their memory will be harmful to you.

Book of Enoch 97:8
Woe to you who acquire silver and gold, but not in righteousness, and say, "We have become very rich and have possessions, and have acquired everything that we desired.

Book of Enoch 97:9
And now let us do what we planned, for we have gathered silver and filled our storehouses, and as many as water are the servants of our houses."

Book of Enoch 97:10
And like the water your life will flow away, for your riches will not stay with you, but will quickly go up from you, for you acquired everything in iniquity and you will be given over to a great curse.

Book of Enoch 98:1
Now I swear to you, the wise, and the foolish, that you will see many things on the earth.

Book of Enoch 98:2
For you men will put on yourselves more adornments than a woman, and more coloured garments than a girl, clothed in sovereignty, and in majesty, and in power, and silver, and gold, and purple, and honors, and food will be poured out like water.

Book of Enoch 98:3
Because of this they will have neither knowledge or wisdom. And through this, they will be destroyed, together with their possessions, and with all their glory and their honor. And in shame, and in slaughter, and in great destitution, their spirits will be thrown into the fiery furnace.

Book of Enoch 98:4
I swear to you, you sinners, that as a mountain has not, and will not, become a slave, nor a hill a woman's maid, so sin was not sent on the earth but man, of himself, created it. And those who commit it will be subject to a great curse.

Book of Enoch 98:5
And barrenness has not been given to a woman, but because of the deeds of her hand she dies without children.

Book of Enoch 98:6
I swear to you, you sinners, by the Holy and Great One, that all your evil deeds are revealed in heaven and that your wrongdoing is not covered or hidden.

Book of Enoch 98:7
And do not think in your spirit or say in your heart, that you do not know, or do not see, every sin is written down every day in heaven in front of the Most High.

Book of Enoch 98:8
From now on, you know that all your wrongdoing that you do will be written down every day, *45:29, *54:52 - 53 until the Day of your Judgement.

Book of Enoch 98:9
Woe to you, you fools, for you will be destroyed through your folly. And you do not listen to the wise, and good will not come upon you.

Book of Enoch 98:10
And now know that you are ready for the Day of Destruction. And do not hope that you will live, you sinners; rather you will go and die, for you know no ransom. You are ready for the Day of the Great Judgement and for the Day of Distress and great shame for your spirits.

Book of Enoch 98:11
Woe to you, you stubborn of heart who do evil and eat blood, from where do you have good things to eat and drink and to be satisfied? From all the good things which our Lord the Most High has placed in abundance on the earth. Therefore you will not have peace.

Book of Enoch 98:12
Woe to you who love deeds of iniquity. Why do you hope for good for yourselves? Know that you will be given into the hands of the righteous, and they will cut your throats and kill you, and will not have mercy on you.

Book of Enoch 98:13
Woe to you who rejoice in the distress of the righteous, for graves will not be dug for you.

Book of Enoch 98:14
Woe to you who declare the words of the righteous empty, for you will have no hope of life.

Book of Enoch 98:15
Woe to you who write lying words, and the words of the impious, for they write their lies so that men may hear and continue their folly. And they will not have peace but will die a sudden death.

Book of Enoch 99:1
Woe to you who do impious deeds and praise and honor lying words; you will be destroyed and will not have a good life.

Book of Enoch 99:2
Woe to you who alter the words of truth, and they distort the eternal law and count themselves as being without sin; they will be trampled underfoot on the ground.

Book of Enoch 99:3
In those days make ready, you righteous, to raise your prayers as a reminder and lay them as a testimony before the angels, that they may lay the sin of the sinners before the Most High as a reminder.

Book of Enoch 99:4
In those days the nations will be thrown into confusion and the races of the nations will rise on the Day of Destruction.

Book of Enoch 99:5
And in those days, those who are in need will go out, seize their children, and cast out their children. And their offspring will slip from them, and they will cast out their children while they are still sucklings, and will not return to them, and will not have mercy on their beloved ones.

Book of Enoch 99:6
And again I swear to you, the sinners, that sin is ready for the Day of Unceasing Bloodshed.

Book of Enoch 99:7
And they worship stone, and some carve images of gold and of silver, and of wood and of clay. And some, with no knowledge, worship unclean spirits and demons, and every kind of error. But no help will be obtained from them. *7:192, *7:197, *21:43, *36:74 - 75

Book of Enoch 99:8
And they will sink into impiety because of the folly of their hearts, and their eyes will be blinded through the fear of their hearts, and through the vision of their ambitions.

Book of Enoch 99:9
Through these they will become impious and fearful, for they do all their deeds with lies, and worship stones, and they will be destroyed at the same moment.

Book of Enoch 99:10
And in those days, blessed are those who accept the words of wisdom, and understand them, and follow the paths of the Most High, and walk in the path of righteousness, and do not act impiously with the impious, for they will be saved.

Book of Enoch 99:11
Woe to you who extend evil to your neighbors; for you will be killed in Sheol.

Book of Enoch 99:12
Woe to you who lay foundations of sin and deceit, and who cause bitterness on the earth, for because of this an end will be made of them.

Book of Enoch 99:13
Woe to you who build your houses with the toil of others, and all their building materials are the sticks and stones of sin; I say to you, "You will not have peace."

Book of Enoch 99:14
Woe to those who reject the measure, and the eternal inheritance of their fathers, and cause their souls to follow error, for they will not have rest.

Book of Enoch 99:15
Woe to those who commit iniquity, and help wrong, and kill their neighbors, until the Day of the Great Judgement; for He will throw down your glory.

Book of Enoch 99:16
And you put evil into your hearts, and rouse the spirit of His anger, so that He may destroy you all with the sword. And all the righteous and the holy will remember your sin.

Book of Enoch 100:1
And in those days, and in one place, fathers and sons will strike one another, and brothers will together fall in death, until their blood flows as if it were a stream.

Book of Enoch 100:2
For a man will not, in mercy, withhold his hand from his sons, nor from his son's sons, in order to kill them. And the sinner will not withhold his hand from his honored brother from dawn until the sun sets they will kill one another.

Book of Enoch 100:3
And the horse will walk up to its chest in the blood of sinners and the chariot will sink up to its height.

Book of Enoch 100:4
And in those days the angels will come down into the hidden places, and gather together in one place all those who have helped sin, and the Most High will rise on that Day to execute the Great Judgement on all the sinners.

Book of Enoch 100:5
And He will set guards, from the holy angels, over all the righteous and holy, and they will guard them like the apple of an eye, until an end is made of all evil and all sin. And even if the righteous sleep a long sleep they have nothing to fear.

Book of Enoch 100:6
And the wise men will see the truth, and the sons of the earth will understand all the words of this book, and they will know that their riches will not be able to save them or overthrow their sin.

Book of Enoch 100:7
Woe to you, you sinners, when you afflict the righteous on the day of severe trouble, and burn them with fire, you will be repaid according to your deeds.

Book of Enoch 100:8
Woe to you, you perverse of heart who watch to devise evil; fear will come upon you and there is no one who will help you.

Book of Enoch 100:9
Woe to you, you sinners, for an account of the words of your mouth, and for an account of the deeds of your hands that you have impiously done; you will burn in blazing flames of Fire.

Book of Enoch 100:10
And now know that the angels will inquire in heaven into your deeds, from the sun and the moon and the stars, into your sins, for on earth you execute judgement on the righteous.

Book of Enoch 100:11
And all the clouds and mist and dew and rain will testify against you, for they will be withheld from you so that they do not fall on you, and they will think about your sins.

Book of Enoch 100:12
And now give gifts to the rain, so that it may not be withheld from falling on you, and so that the dew, if it has accepted gold and silver from you, may fall. When the hoarfrost and snow, with their cold, and all the snowwinds with their torments fall on you. In those days, you will not be able to stand before them.

Book of Enoch 101:1
Contemplate heaven, all you sons of heaven, and all the works of the Most High, and fear Him, and do not do evil in front of Him.

Book of Enoch 101:2
If He closes the windows of heaven, and withholds the rain and the dew, so that it does not fall on the earth because of you, what will you do?

Book of Enoch 101:3
And if He sends His anger upon you, and upon all your deeds, will you not entreat Him? For you speak proud and hard against His righteousness. And you will not have peace.

Book of Enoch 101:4
And do you not see the captains of the ships; how their ships are tossed by the waves and rocked by the winds and are in distress?

Book of Enoch 101:5
And because of this they are afraid, for all their good possessions that go out on the sea with them, and they think nothing good in their hearts, only that the sea will swallow them up, and that they will be destroyed in it.

Book of Enoch 101:6
Is not all the sea, and all its waters, and all its movement, the work of the Most High, and did He not seal all its doings and bind it all with sand?

Book of Enoch 101:7
And at His rebuke it dries up and becomes afraid, and all its fish die, and everything in it; but you sinners who are on earth do not fear Him.

Book of Enoch 101:8
Did He not make heaven, earth, and everything that is in them? And who gave knowledge, and wisdom, to all things that move on the ground and in the sea?

Book of Enoch 101:9
And do those captains of the ships not fear the sea? Yet, sinners do not fear the Most High.

Book of Enoch 102:1
And in those days, if He brings a fierce fire upon you, where will you flee, and where will you be safe? And when He utters His voice against you will you not be terrified and afraid?

Book of Enoch 102:2
And all the lights will shake with great fear, and the whole earth will be terrified, and will tremble and quail.

Book of Enoch 102:3
And all the angels will carry out their commands, and will seek to hide from the One who is great in glory, and the children of the earth will tremble and shake; and you sinners will be cursed forever and will not have peace.

Book of Enoch 102:4
Do not be afraid you souls of the righteous, and be hopeful, you who have died in righteousness.

Book of Enoch 102:5
And do not be sad that your souls have gone down into Sheol in sadness and that your bodies did not obtain during your life a reward in accordance with your goodness.

Book of Enoch 102:6
But when you die the sinners will say about you, "As we die, the righteous have also died, and of what use to them were their deeds?

Book of Enoch 102:7
Behold, like us they have died in sadness and in darkness, and what advantage do they have over us? From now on we are equal.

Book of Enoch 102:8
And what will they receive and what will they see forever? For behold, they too have died, and from now on they will never again see the light."

Book of Enoch 102:9
And I say to you, you sinners, "You are content to eat and drink, and strip men naked, and steal, and sin, and acquire possessions, and see good days.

Book of Enoch 102:10
But you saw the righteous, how their end was peace, for no wrong was found in them until the day of their death."

Book of Enoch 102:11
But they were destroyed and became as though they had not been and their souls went down to Sheol in distress.

Book of Enoch 103:1
And now I swear to you, the righteous, by His great glory and His honor, and by His magnificent sovereignty, and by His majesty, I swear to you that I understand this mystery.

Book of Enoch 103:2
And I have read the tablets of heaven and seen the writing of the holy ones. And I found written and engraved in it, concerning them, that all good, and joy, and honor, have been made ready, and written down, for the spirits of those who died in righteousness.

Book of Enoch 103:3
And much good will be given to you in recompense for your toil and that your lot will be more excellent than the lot of the living.

Book of Enoch 103:4
And the spirits of you who have died in righteousness will live, and your spirits will rejoice and be glad, and the memory of them will remain in front of the Great One for all the generations of eternity. Therefore do not fear their abuse.

Book of Enoch 103:5
Woe to you, you sinners, when you die in your sin, and those who are like you say about you, "Blessed were the sinners, they saw their days.

Book of Enoch 103:6
And now they have died in prosperity and wealth, they did not see distress and slaughter during their life, but they have died in glory, and judgement was not executed on them in their life."

Book of Enoch 103:7
Know that their souls will be made to go down into Sheol, they will be wretched, and their distress will be great.

Book of Enoch 103:8
And in darkness, and in chains, and in burning flames, your spirits will come to the Great Judgement. And the Great Judgement will last for all generations, forever. Woe to you for you will not have peace.

Book of Enoch 103:9
Do not say, the righteous and the good who were alive; "In the days of our affliction we toiled laboriously, and saw every affliction, and met many evils. We were spent and became few and our spirit small.

Book of Enoch 103:10
We were destroyed and there was no one who helped us with words or with deeds. We were powerless and found nothing. We were tortured and destroyed and did not expect to see life from one day to the next.

Book of Enoch 103:11
We hoped to become the head but became the tail. We toiled and labored, but were not masters of the fruits of our toil; we became food for the sinners, and the lawless made their yoke heavy upon us.

Book of Enoch 103:12
Those who hated us, those who goaded us, were masters of us. And to those who hated us we bowed our necks but they did not have mercy on us.

Book of Enoch 103:13
We sought to escape from them so that we might flee and be at rest. But we found no place where we might flee and be safe from them.

Book of Enoch 103:14
We complained about them to the rulers, in our distress, and cried out against those who devoured us, but they took no notice of our cries, and did not wish to listen to our voice.

Book of Enoch 103:15
And they helped those who plundered us and devoured us, and those who made us few, and they concealed their wrongdoing, and did not remove from us the yoke of those who devoured us, and scattered us, and killed us. And they concealed our slaughter and did not remember that they had raised their hands against us."

Book of Enoch 104:1
I swear to you, you righteous, that in heaven the angels remember you for good in front of the glory of the Great One, and that your names are written down in front of the glory of the Great One.

Book of Enoch 104:2
Be hopeful! For you were formerly put to shame through evils and afflictions, but now you will shine like the lights of heaven, and will be seen, and the gate of heaven will be opened to you.

Book of Enoch 104:3
And persevere in your cry for judgement and it will appear to you, for justice will be exacted from the rulers for all your distress, and from all those who helped those who plundered you.

Book of Enoch 104:4
Be hopeful, and do not abandon your hope, for you will have great joy like the angels of heaven.

Book of Enoch 104:5
What will you have to do? You will not have to hide on the Day of the Great Judgement, nor will you be found to be sinners. The Eternal Judgement will be upon you for all the generations of eternity.

Book of Enoch 104:6
And now do not be afraid, you righteous, when you see the sinners growing strong and prospering in their desires, and do not be associated with them but keep far away from their wrongdoing, for you will be associates of the host of heaven.

Book of Enoch 104:7
For you sinners say, "None of our sins will be inquired into and written down!" But they will write down your sins every day. *45:29, *54:52 - 53

Book of Enoch 104:8
And now I show you that light and darkness, day and night, see all your sins.

Book of Enoch 104:9
Do not be impious in your hearts, and do not lie, and do not alter the words of truth, nor say that the words of the Holy and Great One are lies, and do not praise your idols. For all your lies, and all your impiety, lead not to righteousness but to great sin.

Book of Enoch 104:10
And now I know this mystery; that many sinners will alter and distort the words of truth, and speak evil words, and lie, and concoct great fabrications, and write books in their own words.

Book of Enoch 104:11
But when they write my words exactly in their languages, and do not alter or omit anything from my words, but write everything exactly, everything that I testified about before; then I know another mystery,

Book of Enoch 104:12
That books will be given to the righteous and wise and will be a source of joy and truth and much wisdom.

Book of Enoch 104:13
And books will be given to them, and they will believe in them and rejoice over them; and all the righteous who have learned from them all the ways of truth will be glad.

Book of Enoch 105:1
"And in those days," says the Lord, "They shall call and testify to the sons of the earth about the wisdom in them." Show it to them for you are their leaders and the rewards will be over all the earth.

Book of Enoch 105:2
For my son and I will join ourselves with them, forever, in the paths of uprightness during their lives. And you will have peace. Rejoice - you sons of uprightness! Amen.

Book of Enoch 106:1
And after those days my son Methuselah chose a wife for his son Lamech and she became pregnant by him and bore a son.

Book of Enoch 106:2
And his body was white like snow, and red like the flower of a rose, and the hair of his head was white like wool. And his eyes were beautiful and when he opened his eyes he made the whole house bright, like the sun, so that the whole house was exceptionally bright.

Book of Enoch 106:3
And when he was taken from the hand of the midwife he opened his mouth and spoke to the Lord of righteousness.

Book of Enoch 106:4
And his father Lamech was afraid of him, and fled, and went to his father Methuselah.

Book of Enoch 106:5
And he said to him, "I have begotten a strange son; he is not like a man but is like the children of the angels of heaven, of a different type and not like us. And his eyes are like the rays of the sun and his face glorious.

Book of Enoch 106:6
And it seems to me that he is not sprung from me but from the angels and I am afraid that something extraordinary may be done on the earth in his days.

Book of Enoch 106:7
And now, my father, I am entreating you and petitioning you, to go to our father Enoch, and learn from him the truth, for his dwelling is with the angels."

Book of Enoch 106:8
And when Methuselah heard the words of his son, he came to me, at the ends of the earth, for he had heard that I was there. And he cried out, and I heard his voice and went to him. And I said to him, "Behold I am here my son, for you have come to me."

Book of Enoch 106:9
And he answered me, and said, "Because of a great matter I have come to you, and because of a disturbing vision, have I come near.

Book of Enoch 106:10
And now hear me, my father, for a child has been born to my son Lamech, whose form and type are not like the type of a man. His color is whiter than snow, and redder than the flower of the rose, and the hair of his head is whiter than white wool. And his eyes are like the rays of the sun; and he opened his eyes and made the whole house bright.

Book of Enoch 106:11
And he was taken from the hand of the midwife, and he opened his mouth, and blessed the Lord of heaven.

Book of Enoch 106:12
And his father Lamech was afraid and fled to me. And he does not believe he is sprung from him but thinks him to be from the angels of heaven. And behold, I have come to you, so that you may make the truth known to me."

Book of Enoch 106:13
And I, Enoch, answered and said to him, "The Lord will do new things on earth, and this I have already seen in a vision, and made known to you. For in the generation of my father, Jared, some from the height of heaven transgressed the word of the Lord.

Book of Enoch 106:14
And behold, they commit sin and transgress the law, and have been promiscuous with women, and commit sin with them, and have married some of them, and have begotten children by them.

Book of Enoch 106:15
And there will be great destruction over the whole earth, and there will be a deluge, and there will be great destruction for one year.

Book of Enoch 106:16
But this child, who has been born to you, will be left on the earth, and his three sons will be saved with him. When all the men who are on the earth die, he and his sons will be saved.

Book of Enoch 106:17
They will beget on the earth giants, not of spirit, but of flesh, and there will be great wrath on earth, and the earth will be cleansed of all corruption. And now make known to your son Lamech that the one who has been born is truly his son. And call his name Noah, for he will be a remnant for you, and he and his sons will be saved from the destruction which is coming on the earth because of all the sin and all the iniquity, which will be committed on the earth in his days. But after this, there will be yet greater iniquity than that which was committed on the earth before. For I know the mysteries of the holy ones, for the Lord showed them to me and made them known to me, and I read them in the tablets of heaven.

Book of Enoch 107:1
And I saw written on them, that generation upon generation will do wrong, until a generation of righteousness shall arise, and wrongdoing shall be destroyed, and sin shall depart from the earth, and everything good shall come upon it.

Book of Enoch 107:2
And now, my son, go, make known to your son Lamech, that this child that has been born, is truly his son, and this is no lie."

Book of Enoch 107:3
And when Methuselah had heard the words of his father Enoch - for he showed him everything which is secret - he returned, having seen him, and called the name of that child Noah; for he will comfort the earth after all the destruction.

Book of Enoch 108:1
Another book which Enoch wrote for his son Methuselah and for those who should come after him and keep the law in the last days.

Book of Enoch 108:2
You who have observed, and are waiting in these days, until an end shall be made of those who do evil, and an end shall be made of the power of the wrongdoers.

Book of Enoch 108:3
Do indeed wait until sin shall pass away, for their names shall be erased from the books of the holy ones, and their offspring will be destroyed forever. And their spirits will be killed, and they will cry out and moan in a chaotic desert place, and will burn in Fire, for there is no earth there.

Book of Enoch 108:4
And there I saw something like a cloud, which could not be discerned, for because of its depth I was not able to look into it. And the flames of a fire I saw, burning brightly, and things like bright mountains revolved and shook from side to side.

Book of Enoch 108:5
And I asked one of the holy angels, who were with me, and I said to him, "What is this bright place? For there is no heaven, but only the flames of a burning fire, and the sounds of crying, and weeping, and moaning, and severe pain."

Book of Enoch 108:6
And he said to me, "This place which you see; here will be thrown the spirits of the sinners, and of the blasphemers, and of those who do evil. And of those who alter everything that the Lord has spoken through the mouths of the prophets about the things that shall be done.

Book of Enoch 108:7
For there are books, and records, about them in heaven above so that the angels may read them and know what is about to come *37:8 upon the sinners, and upon the spirits of the humble, and of those who afflicted their bodies and were recompensed by God, and of those who were abused by evil men.

Book of Enoch 108:8
Those who loved God and did not love gold, or silver, or any possessions, but gave up their bodies to torment.

Book of Enoch 108:9
Those who, from the moment they existed, did not desire earthly food, but counted themselves as a breath which passes away, and kept to this. And the Lord tested them much, and their spirits were found pure, so that they might bless His name."

Book of Enoch 108:10
And all their blessings I have recounted in the books, and He has assigned them their reward, for they were found to be such that they loved heaven more than their life in the world. And although they were trampled underfoot by evil men, and had to listen to reviling and reproach from them, and were abused, yet they blessed their Lord.

Book of Enoch 108:11
And the Lord said, "And now I will call the spirits of the good, who are of the generation of light, and I will transform those who were born in darkness, who in the flesh were not recompensed with honor as was fitting to their faith.

Book of Enoch 108:12
And I will bring out into the shining light those who love My holy name and I will set each one on the throne of his honor."

Book of Enoch 108:13
And they will shine for times without number, for righteous is the Judgement of God, for with the faithful He will keep faith in the dwelling of upright paths.

Book of Enoch 108:14
And they will see those who were born in darkness thrown into the darkness while the righteous shine.

Book of Enoch 108:15
And the sinners will cry out as they see them shining but they themselves will go where days and times have been written down for them.
